KIP-66 — Single Message Transforms for Kafka Connect

Accepted Kafka 1.0 Connect

Introduces a Single Message Transforms (SMT) API for Kafka Connect that allows lightweight, stateless, per-record transformations (InsertField, ReplaceField, MaskField, ValueToKey, Cast, TimestampConverter, etc.) to be chained in a connector configuration. Without SMTs, any record transformation required writing a full custom connector or post-processing outside Connect, adding operational complexity.
