JSON Settings

In the JSON Parsing Settings dialog box, you can specify node settings that determine how data guides are generated. A data guide is used whenever a JSON structure is present in the UI, for example, JSON Query node. Because the data guide table generation could be time consuming, especially for large JSON data, the following settings offers some control on the table generation:

• Generate Data Guide if necessary: By default, this option is selected. It generates a data guide for the JSON type columns. Deselect this option if JSON data is not used in the product. Therefore, no Data Guide will be generated.

• Sampling: Defines how many JSON documents stored in a column are to be processed, to generate the data guide table. The JSON document contains the entire content of the JSON column for a given row.

  • Max number of documents: 2000 (Default). Use the arrows to change this setting.

• Limit Document Values to Process: Defines how many JSON values (Number, String, Boolean) are to be parsed in the document to generate the data guide table.

  • Max number per document: 10,000 (Default). Use the arrows to change this setting.
