KIP-802 — Validation Support for Kafka Connect SMT Options
Discussion Connect
Extends the Connect REST API (`PUT /connector-plugins/{name}/config/validate`) to also validate the configuration of SMTs, SMT predicates, and converters in addition to connector configurations. Currently there is no way to validate SMT or converter config before registering a connector—invalid configs are only discovered at connector startup.
