Basic settings

Property Type	Select the way the properties will be set. Two options are provided: Built-In and Repository. Built-In: Use the properties set for the current component in the Basic settings and Advanced settings views. Repository: Use the properties stored in the repository.
Schema and Edit schema	A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields (columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark Job, avoid the reserved word `line` when naming the fields. Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component only. Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs. Click Edit schema to make changes to the schema. Information noteNote: If you make changes, the schema automatically becomes built-in. View schema: choose this option to view the schema only. Change to built-in property: choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes. Update repository connection: choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata again in the Repository Content window.
