Custom objects of type JSON

To create an object of type JSON, prepare this folder structure for the import:

FOLDER: JSON
+-- FOLDER: <object name>
+---- FILE: <object name>.schema.json
+---- FILE: <object name>.properties.json

To import a .zip file that contains one or more definitions for objects of type JSON, use the Object Schemas page in Data Fabric.

These validations are performed when importing:

• Object names must be unique and must comply to the object naming conventions.
• If an object with an identical name is already registered with another type, the import fails.
• If an object with an identical name is already registered with the JSON type, the imported schema overwrites the existing schema.
• The <object name>.schema.json schema file is validated in this way:
  • Only one JSON schema file can be used for a given object name.
  • The schema file must be a valid JSON according to the JSON schema definition, version draft-06.
  • The schema file must use UTF-8 encoding.
  • The anyOf keyword is not allowed.
  • The oneOf keyword is supported only to describe a type that can be null.

The <object name>.properties.json file is optional and can contain additional metadata properties for an object.

For information on how to define the <object name>.properties.json file, see Defining additional object metadata properties and Additional properties file.
