AWS Glue JSON limit












0














Trying to use AWS Glue to automatically crawl and catalogue JSON files in an S3 bucket as described here:



https://docs.aws.amazon.com/glue/latest/dg/add-crawler.html



Files smaller than 1mb are successfully catalogued however files greater than 1mb fail to be catalogued and are classified as Unknown.



Have tried approach listed here:
AWS Glue Crawler Classifies json file as UNKNOWN



However makes no difference.



Would love to know if anyone's had similar issues?

          I have the same problem. Have you tried flattening the data into ORC or similar? There seems to be a limitation on nested JSON of a certain size, even with custom classifiers. Or you can change your JSON from



          [
          { .... },
          { .....},
          ]


          into just



          { ... }
          { ... }


          Which should work in Glue.



          This is the Python script I ran to get that transformation (worked with a 200 mb JSON):



          import json
          with open('./Data/data.json') as f:
          data = json.load(f)
          with open('./Data/data_flat.json', 'w') as file:
          for entry in data['locations']:
          file.write(json.dumps(entry)+'n')


          Now glue correctly Classifies it!
