Currently, we do not support import flat files (csv, tsv format) directly into Dataflake.

However, if you have your databases which Dataflake support to connect, you can import flat files (csv, tsv or custom format) to them, then you can continue executing to connect your database to Dataflake.

To import your flat files into your database:

From the top navigation bar, click on the icon.

Choose the Connection strings tab.

Select the data source that you want to import your flat file in. Make sure that you already connect the data source to Dataflake

Click to import your flat file to the data source

Browse the file you want to add.

Select the type of file.

Name your Table.

Check this option if you want to consider the first row as the Header.

Click Next

Configure Data types for each column.

You can rename columns
