Is there a limit on json arrays?

marcokrueger · ‎04-29-2013

Hi,
I import a json-file with a json-object that contains an array with another 50 json-objects. It looks like, that the (multiline) event is not read in till to the end, but my truncate and max_events are big enough.
I have SHOULD_LINEMERGE = true, truncate=0 and max_events=10000. Is there perhaps another (hidden) parameter to control event-length or json-objects?

best regards
Marco

According to this answer, there is a limit if you use INDEXED EXTRACTIONS = JSON but not if you use KV_MODE = json:
