Parse YAML¤
Python Plugin
This operator is part of a Python Plugin Package. In order to use it, you need to install it, e.g. with cmemc.
This workflow task parses YAML content from multiple sources and converts it to various output formats.
Input Sources: - entities: Parse YAML from input port entities in a workflow - code: Parse YAML from directly entered source code - file: Parse YAML from uploaded project file resources
Output Formats: - entities: Convert parsed structure to entities for workflow processing - json_entities: Output as single JSON entity to the output port - json_dataset: Save parsed structure directly to a JSON dataset
The plugin provides flexible YAML-to-JSON conversion with configurable input schema types and paths for entity-based processing. It includes comprehensive validation and error handling for all supported modes.
