Uploading a Schema

Make sure the uploaded schema is used in the Producer / Consumer application in exact same form. If you are uploading a schema that has not references to other schemas you can upload the avsc file or if you are uploading a schema that has references to other schemas you can upload the compiled schema file. If you use a plugin such as the avro-maven-plugin for schema maintenance, make sure to upload the source schema files.

  2. Upload the schema as a text file (avsc format). The Avro syntax will be validated as soon as the file has been uploaded.

  3. Add the version for the schema

  4. If you are uploading the first version of this schema, be sure to add a description

  5. Any authenticated user can upload a schema for their tenant.
