Parsing Hierarchical Data
The add-in offers three basic configurations to model documents as tables, described in the following sections. The add-in will parse the Elasticsearch document and identify the nested documents.
- Flattened Documents Model: Implicitly join nested documents into a single table.
- Relational Model: Model nested documents as individual tables containing a primary key and a foreign key that links to the parent document.
- Top-Level Document Model: Model a top-level view of an Elasticsearch document. Nested documents are returned as JSON strings.
