How to get Kafka timestamp for a record in Flink?










1















I have a Flink application that uses the FlinkKafkaConsumer.



I am interested in retrieving the Kafka timestamp for a given record/offset using the KeyedDeserializationSchema. It seems that the topic, partition, offset, and message are available.



How can the timestamp be obtained?

          You can simply use ConsumerRecord.timestamp() - the timestamp in milliseconds since beginning of the epoch (midnight Jan 1, 1970 (UTC)).
          The timestamp type is indicated in timestampType().
