Interactive Content Splitting Explorer

See content splitting in action! Use the interactive explorer below to step through 5 stages of message splitting transformation. Watch as bundled sensor arrays are progressively split into individual messages with preserved context.

How to Use This Explorer​

  1. Navigate using arrow keys (← →) or click the numbered stage buttons
  2. Compare the Input (left) and Output (right) JSON at each stage
  3. Observe how the array is split (red strikethrough) and context is preserved (green highlight)
  4. Inspect the YAML code showing exactly what processor was added
  5. Learn from the stage description explaining the technique and benefit

Original Bundled Message

Single message containing multiple sensor readings bundled in an array. This format is efficient for transport but prevents individual routing and processing.
