 **@mapshen:** Hi there, with 0.8.0, Pinot has got the complex type support as
per . My question is: can the unnested fields like “group.group_topics.urlkey”
in the meetupRsvp example be supplied as arguments to the transform functions?
The answer seems to be No in my testing.  
**@g.kishore:** you can use json functions -  
**@mapshen:** You meant one can still use the json functiosn after a json
array is flattened?  
**@g.kishore:** yes

 **@mapshen:** Hello, i wonder if there is any guidance on troubleshoot
ingestion issues. We have a table set up consuming from Kafka, but nothing is
ingested. And there is no such info/warn/error events showing up in the logs
either.  
**@jackie.jxt:** Can you please check the log on both controller and server?
There should be logs on why the consumption didn't start  
**@mapshen:** Hi @jackie.jxt, yes I did but there was nothing. Also tried the
debug table API and it shows the table status is healthy…  
**@jackie.jxt:** Hmm, can you share the table config?  
**@jackie.jxt:** Can you also confirm that events are already pushed to Kafka?
