Hi,
We are trying to connect to a REST api and are using the JSON CData provider version 22.0.8257.0.
We are connecting to two seperate datasources:
The problem with the second datasource is that the decimal seperator is mixed up.
We tried some of the culture settings but it doesn’t seem to work.
What is the best way to solve this?
Hi
Just to confirm this is the setting you have tried to adjust
https://cdn.cdata.com/help/DJH/ado/RSBJSON_p_Culture.htm
Which specific values have you tried for the culture setting?
Can you please give an example of the values being returned, vs the desired output?
Hi Christian,
I have added an image.
On the left side the desired output, in the middle the output (JSON) postman, on the right side the parquet file which is the input for TimeXtender.
We tried culture setting nl-NL and we also tried to put the format in RSD file to string.
When no of decimals is 1 we have to divide the output by 10
When no of decimals is 2 we have to divide the output by 100
When no decimals the output is correct.
But we can’t determine the no. of decimals.
If you view the table in the data source explorer what data type is shown?
Which version of TimeXtender are you using?
Datatype float but tried several types by changing the RSD file, Version 6143.1
can you please try bringing it in as string/text and then converting later in a query table or in the DW table?
Hi Michel
Did you set the client culture as well?
You would set the client culture and then add either the same or something else in the culture field.
Hi
Hi Christian,
A colleague of mine will follow up this issue.
We have tried the culture settings but it seems to be wrong at the datasource level.
We have asked the supplier to change the api settings hopefully this will resolve the issue.
Kind regards,
Michel
