Manta Talend scanner should be able to parse jobs implementing the Dynamic Schema feature of Talend

Manta does not currently support Talend's Dynamic Schema feature. 

The Dynamic Feature dynamically derives the metadata from source.  This is a common pattern used in Talend jobs in scenarios where number of attributes is unknown. 

For example, select Dynamic columns from Dynamic table and ingest to target table. There exists a mapping in Talend which maps the input dynamic columns to the columns in the target table. 

Refer : Case number TS019667499

Who would benefit from it ?

Any application that wants to use Manta to capture lineage from Talend jobs designed as framework to read dynamic attributes from source 

 

How it should work ?

Manta should be able to parse the mapping used in the dynamic schemas to show the attributes in the lineage flow viewer.
