Hi Guys,

 

I was using the input tool to ingest a sample data. However the headers doesn't seem to be reading in full and is getting truncated. I have attached a screenshot and a small excel file.

Hoping you guys can answer this.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Ajin10 

 

Interesting use case you are right there seems to be a limit for char length in header.

Hi @Ajin10 ,

 

There is a 256 character limit on headers within Alteryx. However you can read the file in with "First Row Contains Data" to possibly circumvent this. Hope this helps.
