JOLT block

The jolt_transform block applies a JOLT transformation to JSON data as a transformation block in a Connect+ dataflow. JOLT is an open-source JSON-to-JSON transformation library that uses a JSON-based specification to define how input JSON is restructured or mapped. The block accepts a JOLT specification that defines how the input JSON is restructured or mapped before being passed to downstream blocks.

When to use this block

Use this block when your dataflow needs to reshape a JSON payload using a JOLT specification — for example, when integrating with systems that require a specific JSON schema.

Prerequisites

Before configuring this block, make sure you have:

  • A JOLT transformation specification prepared for your use case
  • A sample of the input JSON to validate your specification
