Properties¶

In the list below required Properties are shown with an asterisk (*). Other properties are considered optional. The table also indicates any default values, and whether a property supports the NiFi Expression Language.

Escape Character *	Escape Character			The character that is used to escape characters that would otherwise have a specific meaning to the CSV Parser. If the property has been specified via Expression Language but the expression gets evaluated to an invalid Escape Character at runtime, then it will be skipped and the default Escape Character will be used. Setting it to an empty string means no escape character should be used.
Quote Character *	Quote Character	“		The character that is used to quote values so that escape characters do not have to be used.

Ignore Duplicates *	ignore-duplicates	true	true false	Ignore duplicate keys for records in the CSV file.
