Working with .NET Schemas

Due to a limitation in our platform you will need register another schema in Self-Service to work with the .NET client.

To achieve that you need to following:

  1. Download the .NET Avro Schema Parser Tool

  2. Make sure your avsc file is fully resolve - doesn’t reference to other files

  3. Run the following command

    dotnet AvroSchemaParser.dll [avsc FILE PATH] > [OUTPUT PATH].avsc

  4. Upload the new schema.
