Hi Team,

I am trying to format JSON, below is the sample working JSON format.

I am hardcoding advertiser, attributeContext etc.

Instead of hard coded can i get it from meta data.

$out.0.requestContent=  
‘{“advertiser”:’+‘"’+$in.0.advertiser+‘"’  
+‘,“attributeContext”:’+‘"’+$in.0.attributeContext+‘"’  
+‘,“attribute1D”:’+‘"’+$in.0.attribute1D+‘"’  
+‘}’;

Thanks,  
Jagan.

Hi jagan,

In commercial versions of CloverETL you can use [http://doc.cloveretl.com/documentation/ … riter.html](http://doc.cloveretl.com/documentation/UserGuide/index.jsp?topic=/com.cloveretl.gui.docs/docs/jsonwriter.html)

I am afraid that in Community/OpenSource versions you have to do it using your approach.
