Add Option to input text/formula for Kafka Schema Registry Schema.
When using the Kafka Application, you often have to choose a Topic, and also an associated Message Schema.
When creating a topic, we have the ability to formula/free entry the topic names. I would like the same feature when choosing a Schema.
Reason: We have different topics for every environment in Kafka. We also have a separate schema for each of those topics. In the present day setup, I am able to utilize the properties of an environment, to list the Topic Names. and then, in my recipe, Incan reference a property, and get the appropriate topic names. and when I promote recipe to an upper environment, this prevents me from having to go back into the recipe and update the endpoints to point to the upper environment Kafka topics. -But, given that the schema is unable to accept formula/free entry schemas, I am unable to replicate this feature and I am FORCED to manually update the schema in EVERY location of the actions, in every recipe, for every promotion.
Please consider this a large boost to Workato's own "feel" to the user - we are developing automation, but still have a lot of manual processes we have to take to keep Workato functioning correctly.
