ARRAY.OF

Converts any value to an array.

Converts any value to an array.

  • If the input argument is already an array, Tamr applies the conversion_function to all elements of input.
  • If the input argument is not an array, Tamr applies the conversion_function directly to it, then wraps the result in an array as the sole element.

The output type of the conversion_function defines the type for the contents of the output array.

Tip: To find the function that best meets your needs, review similar function ARRAY.
