Introduction to Schemas

In the schemas section of an adapter definition document, you can review and update the schemas that the extension has generated from an application's APIs.

The JSON schemas define the structure of the input and output payloads. Schemas can reference other definitions in the adapter definition document. Generally, you don't need to update the schemas. However, if necessary, you can edit the schemas to:

• Remove certain fields that may not be necessary for your adapter.
• Remove nesting and have a flat list.
• Change the response format. For example, an API may return a time stamp as a UNIX epoch. You can transform the value into a human-readable format by editing the schema.
