JSON File Source

JSON file data can be connected to via PowerShell.

For JSON file sources there are a number of settings:

Fields /Link buttons

Folder or web site / Browse

 Specify UNC folder path or http/ftp site address

File type filter

 Optional filter used in combo box listing files in folder

Timeout (not implemented for JSON)  Enter the number of seconds to wait for a result from the source when executing source scripts (applies to previews and transfers). 

Caution: Setting timeout to 0 is not recommended as it does not automatically free up resources when the source query does not return.

Row limit (not implemented for JSON)  Enter the maximum number of rows returned in data previews. 

Caution: Setting row limit to 0 is not recommended as data previews might consume a lot of system memory resulting in poor performance or "System out of memory" error messages.

 

Note!

Some complex and/or large JSON Files can have some issues being read directly. In these cases the user can specify a custom PowerShell source script.
