Map => Json

(1/1)

stanl:
Should this be looked at as a user-defined UDF, or could it be part of the mapping functions, i.e. like MapPutCSV(), but as MapPutJson()? Useful for REST which may need params, headers, body data.

td:
Just a starting point and one of many ways to perform the task.

There are multiple ways the above script can be optimized.  Using a UDF has the advantage of allowing you to perform the conversion to your needs and preferences.

stanl:
Nice. And useful. Thanks.
