ExecuteSQL Processor with Parquet record writer

avatar
Explorer

I am working in NiFi 1.16 and trying to use ExecuteSQL processor to write out a Parquet file.  My challenge is the decimal format is being changed to "LogicalType(STRING: StringType())".

The data is coming from an MS SQL server.  We have tried to set the precision and scale, but still continues to come out in a string instead of a decimal.

@BillyG, set the property "Use Avro Logical Types" to true if you would like to use anything else besides STRINGS :).
