+## Support for exporting transactions in the JSON format from Citrix ADC Observability Exporter to Kafka
+
+You can now export transactions from Citrix ADC Observability Exporter to Kafka in the JSON format apart from the AVRO format.
+A new parameter `DataFormat` is introduced in the Kafka deployment ConfigMap to support transactions in the JSON format.
+This parameter can accept AVRO and JSON values. For allowing JSON based transactions, set the value of
+`DataFormat` as JSON in the
+[coe-kafka.yaml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/citrix/citrix-observability-exporter/master/examples/kafka/coe-kafka.yaml) file. The default value is AVRO.
+
+The following example shows the YAML file with the data format configured as JSON.
+
+```yml
+    apiVersion: v1
+    kind: ConfigMap
+    metadata:
+      name: coe-config-kafka
+    data:
+      lstreamd_default.conf: |
+        {
