However beware that you don't do additional Avro processing downstream, as that will likely break (because of the bug in NIFI-3000).</P> Wed, 09 Nov 2016 03:51:38 GMT https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Archives-of-Support-Questions/convertcsvtoavro-schema-for-the-above-file-how-to-resolve/m-p/169303#M45643 mburgess 2016-11-09T03:51:38Z
