| Type: | string |
| Default: | |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
Converter class used to convert between Kafka Connect format and the serialized form that is written to Kafka. This controls the format of the keys in messages written to or read from Kafka, and since this is independent of connectors it allows any connector to work with any serialization format. Examples of common formats include JSON and Avro.
| Type: | class |
| Default: | |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
The name of the Kafka topic where connector offsets are stored

| Type: | string |
| Default: | |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
Converter class used to convert between Kafka Connect format and the serialized form that is written to Kafka. This controls the format of the values in messages written to or read from Kafka, and since this is independent of connectors it allows any connector to work with any serialization format. Examples of common formats include JSON and Avro.
| Type: | class |
| Default: | |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
A list of host/port pairs to use for establishing the initial connection to the Kafka cluster. The client will make use of all servers irrespective of which servers are specified here for bootstrapping—this list only impacts the initial hosts used to discover the full set of servers. This list should be in the form host1:port1,host2:port2,…. Since these servers are just used for the initial connection to discover the full cluster membership (which may change dynamically), this list need not contain the full set of servers (you may want more than one, though, in case a server is down).
| Type: | list |
| Default: | localhost:9092 |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
The expected time between heartbeats to the group coordinator when using Kafka’s group management facilities. Heartbeats are used to ensure that the worker’s session stays active and to facilitate rebalancing when new members join or leave the group. The value must be set lower than session.timeout.ms, but typically should be set no higher than 1/3 of that value. It can be adjusted even lower to control the expected time for normal rebalances.
| Type: | int |
| Default: | 3000 (3 seconds) |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
The maximum allowed time for each worker to join the group once a rebalance has begun. This is basically a limit on the amount of time needed for all tasks to flush any pending data and commit offsets. If the timeout is exceeded, then the worker will be removed from the group, which will cause offset commit failures.
| Type: | int |
| Default: | 60000 (1 minute) |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
The timeout used to detect worker failures. The worker sends periodic heartbeats to indicate its liveness to the broker. If no heartbeats are received by the broker before the expiration of this session timeout, then the broker will remove the worker from the group and initiate a rebalance. Note that the value must be in the allowable range as configured in the broker configuration by group.min.session.timeout.ms and group.max.session.timeout.ms.
| Type: | int |
| Default: | 10000 (10 seconds) |
| Valid Values: | |

| Type: | password |
| Default: | null |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
Controls how the client uses DNS lookups. If set to use_all_dns_ips, connect to each returned IP address in sequence until a successful connection is established. After a disconnection, the next IP is used. Once all IPs have been used once, the client resolves the IP(s) from the hostname again (both the JVM and the OS cache DNS name lookups, however). If set to resolve_canonical_bootstrap_servers_only, resolve each bootstrap address into a list of canonical names. After the bootstrap phase, this behaves the same as use_all_dns_ips. If set to default (deprecated), attempt to connect to the first IP address returned by the lookup, even if the lookup returns multiple IP addresses.
| Type: | string |
| Default: | use_all_dns_ips |
| Valid Values: | [default, use_all_dns_ips, resolve_canonical_bootstrap_servers_only] |

The list of protocols enabled for SSL connections. The default is ‘TLSv1.2,TLSv1.3’ when running with Java 11 or newer, ‘TLSv1.2’ otherwise. With the default value for Java 11, clients and servers will prefer TLSv1.3 if both support it and fallback to TLSv1.2 otherwise (assuming both support at least TLSv1.2). This default should be fine for most cases. Also see the config documentation for `ssl.protocol`.

| Importance: | medium |
The SSL protocol used to generate the SSLContext. The default is ‘TLSv1.3’ when running with Java 11 or newer, ‘TLSv1.2’ otherwise. This value should be fine for most use cases. Allowed values in recent JVMs are ‘TLSv1.2’ and ‘TLSv1.3’. ‘TLS’, ‘TLSv1.1’, ‘SSL’, ‘SSLv2’ and ‘SSLv3’ may be supported in older JVMs, but their usage is discouraged due to known security vulnerabilities. With the default value for this config and ‘ssl.enabled.protocols’, clients will downgrade to ‘TLSv1.2’ if the server does not support ‘TLSv1.3’. If this config is set to ‘TLSv1.2’, clients will not use ‘TLSv1.3’ even if it is one of the values in ssl.enabled.protocols and the server only supports ‘TLSv1.3’.

Converter class used to convert between Kafka Connect format and the serialized form that is written to Kafka. This controls the format of the values in messages written to or read from Kafka, and since this is independent of connectors it allows any connector to work with any serialization format. Examples of common formats include JSON and Avro.

HeaderConverter class used to convert between Kafka Connect format and the serialized form that is written to Kafka. This controls the format of the header values in messages written to or read from Kafka, and since this is independent of connectors it allows any connector to work with any serialization format. Examples of common formats include JSON and Avro. By default, the SimpleHeaderConverter is used to serialize header values to strings and deserialize them by inferring the schemas.

The action that Connect should take on the connector when changes in external configuration providers result in a change in the connector’s configuration properties. A value of ‘none’ indicates that Connect will do nothing. A value of ‘restart’ indicates that Connect should restart/reload the connector with the updated configuration properties.The restart may actually be scheduled in the future if the external configuration provider indicates that a configuration value will expire in the future.

Behavior for tolerating errors during connector operation. ‘none’ is the default value and signals that any error will result in an immediate connector task failure; ‘all’ changes the behavior to skip over problematic records.
| Type: | string |
| Default: | none |
| Valid Values: | [none, all] |
| Importance: | medium |
If true, write each error and the details of the failed operation and problematic record to the Connect application log. This is ‘false’ by default, so that only errors that are not tolerated are reported.
| Type: | boolean |
| Default: | false |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | medium |
Whether to the include in the log the Connect record that resulted in a failure. This is ‘false’ by default, which will prevent record keys, values, and headers from being written to log files, although some information such as topic and partition number will still be logged.
| Type: | boolean |
| Default: | false |

| Type: | string |
| Default: | |
| Valid Values: | non-empty string without ISO control characters |
| Importance: | high |
Name or alias of the class for this connector. Must be a subclass of org.apache.kafka.connect.connector.Connector. If the connector is org.apache.kafka.connect.file.FileStreamSinkConnector, you can either specify this full name, or use “FileStreamSink” or “FileStreamSinkConnector” to make the configuration a bit shorter
| Type: | string |

List of topics to consume, separated by commas
| Type: | list |
| Default: | “” |
| Valid Values: | |
| Importance: | high |
Regular expression giving topics to consume. Under the hood, the regex is compiled to a java.util.regex.Pattern. Only one of topics or topics.regex should be specified.
| Type: | string |
