This page describes how to parse JSONs in Wrangler. If the JSON has arrays, this will be a short tutorial to explain how the arrays can be exploded/flattened into columns for further processing/cleanup.

Parsing JSON

Steps to follow:

  1. Go to CDF instance.

  2. Navigate to Wrangler from the sidebar (appears on clicking the hamburger icon in the navbar).

  3. From the a Wrangler source (GCS or BigQuery) read a JSON file to Wrangle.

  4. Once navigated to Wrangler tab, open the dropdown on the column and choose Parse → JSON.

  5. After Step 4, the fields in the JSON will form the column. Identify the column that has rows.

  6. Open the drop-down from that specific column and select Explode → Array (by flattening).

  7. This will explode the elements in the JSON array as individual data in the same column in Wrangler.

After step 7 further directives can be applied based on cleanup needed.
