Clarification on required fields of input and ouput file delimited

Hi All,

Can spot that in TOS basic settings tab of for tFileInputDelimited components view row separator is not marked as asterisk or required.

Same is also not done for field separator incase of tFileInputDelimited. Any idea why they(field and row separators are not marked mandatory in TOS?)

When I don't provide them I don't get any error as compile time although I get runtime errors.

Curious if there will be question in certification regarding required fields for both components should I just answer the fields marked with asterisk in their right side in TOS

or

should I be logical with functional with minimal sets fieldnames( filename, schema, field separator and row separator).

Hello,

The question of the certif is: what are the necessary parameters for reading a delimited file?

You can just put the name and the schema and the job will work but you will not have the right data!

So it's implicit, you have to specify the row and column delimiter to have consistent data.

The answer to the question is ; filename, schéma and column delimiter
