      According to documentation for Debezium 1.9/2.0+, Event Router documentation(Expanding escaped JSON String as JSON paragraph) contains incorrect information:

       

      To enable this transformation, you have to set the table.expand.json.payload to true and use the StringConverter like below:

      To enable this transformation, you have to set the table.expand.json.payload to true and use the JsonConverter like below:

transforms=outbox,... 
transforms.outbox.type=io.debezium.transforms.outbox.EventRouter 
transforms.outbox.table.expand.json.payload=true 
value.converter=org.apache.kafka.connect.json.JsonConverter
