When creating a task in Replicate with a Kafka target, a change to control the table/topic name used for Apply Exceptions is not possible through the UI (AEM or Replicate) Task-Settings..Metadata..Control Tables. The current method to override the Apply Exceptions table/topic name is to export the task, edit the task JSON (update exception_table_settings value), import edited task.
I would like to see the Apply Exceptions table/topic name to be editable through the UI and have the UI always reflect the effective value.
My primary reason for changing the Apply Exceptions table/topic name when using a Kafka target is to use a separate apply exceptions topic per task that would avoid any message structure compatibility issues across tasks when Avro/Schema Registry is configured on the Kafka target endpoint.
