Converts the message data received from the wire into a format that Apache Camel processors can consume
The Unmarshal pattern uses Apache Camel’s pluggable data format mechanism to convert messages into a format appropriate for processing by Apache Camel.
The Unmarshal pattern can be placed anywhere in the body of a route. However, it is typically placed after endpoints that receive the message.
Table 116, “Unmarshal Properties” describes the properties you can specify using the properties editor.
Table 116. Unmarshal Properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Specifies the data type to which the data will be unmarshalled. For data formats that require configuration, the format’s tab provides the property fields to configure the marshaller. Because the GZip, Serialization, String, and Zip data formats are

your Maven
