Set FlattenObjects to true to flatten object properties into columns of their own. Otherwise, objects nested in arrays are returned as strings of JSON.

Syntax

Connect-Couchbase -FlattenObjects bool

Data Type

bool

Default Value

true

Remarks

Set FlattenObjects to true to flatten object properties into columns of their own. Otherwise, objects nested in arrays are returned as strings of JSON. The property name is concatenated onto the object name with an underscore to generate the column name.

For example, you can flatten the nested objects below at connection time:

address : {
  "street" : "123 Main St.",
  "city"   : "Nowhere",
  "state"  : "NY",
  "zip"    : "12345"
}

When FlattenObjects is set to true, the preceding object is flattened into the following table:

Column Name	Column Value
address.street	123 Main St.
address.city	Nowhere
address.state	NY
address.zip	12345
