Property | Description |
|---|---|
Delimiter | Required. The single character that separates fields in files that the event target generates. To use a space or a tab, enter it as an escaped character ("\s" or "\t"). If you enter a longer value, the connector uses only the first character. Choose a character that doesn't appear in your field values. The value must be different from the Text Qualifier. Default is ",". |
Text Qualifier | Required. A single character that wraps a field value so the connector reads special characters in the value as data, not structure. The connector qualifies a field only when its value contains the delimiter character, the Text Qualifier character, or a line break. Otherwise, it writes the value without qualifiers. If a value contains the Text Qualifier character, the connector doubles that character in the qualified value so the file parses back correctly. For example, with the qualifier ", the connector writes the value she said "hi" as "she said ""hi""". Enter a single character. If you enter more than one, the connector uses only the first. Choose a non-alphanumeric character that doesn't appear in your data. A letter or digit causes the connector to qualify ordinary values that contain it. The character can't match the Delimiter character. Default is ". |
Skip Headers | Required. Determines whether the generated content has header names. Select Yes to store the delimited content without header names. Default is No. |
Line Ending Style | Required. Determines the line ending style in the generated content. The Windows style is \r\n and the Unix style is \n. Default is Windows. |
