You can create a flat file data object or complex file data object from a JSON or XML data source. You can create and run a column profile on the data object.
Create a text file that contains the path of the JSON or XML data source and use the text file as the data source to create a flat file data object. You can also add the file path for multiple JSON or multiple XML data sources into the text file.
You can create a complex file data object from a JSON or XML data source with a complex file reader. The complex file reader provides input to a Data Processor transformation that parses the file and converts the source data to flat comma-separated values records.
The Developer tool does not support a JSON data source with UTF-8 encoding.
