How to load CSV files with DB-Extractor

Hi, everyone

I'm trying to load a CSV file using db-extractor. This is the configuration I'm placing in the .yaml file :

 

but I'm encountering the following error:

 

It seems that the error might be that the query section doesn't recognize the sheet name. I checked that the sheet name matches by opening the file in Excel format, but the error persists. I also loaded the same file in .xlsx format and it loaded without any problem. 

 

How should I specify in the query so that it takes the correct name in CSV format?

 

Regards,

Karina Saylema

Hi Karina,

Here is the example query to use with .csv files:

 

  - name: query_csv_test_local
database: csv_test_local
sheet: file

query: >
SELECT
*
FROM
file

“sheet” must be set to “file”, and your query must point to “file” as the table as well.
