I'm having issue with importing huge txt file where delimiter is comma and there is also newline delimiter which is vertical bar.
I've tried to import with \0 delimiter so I could separate everything after with Text to tool but the error I'm receiving is that Input tool is unable to import because number of fields is greater than 16M fields.
What could I do? Thanks.

I cannot open your workflow package, it says it may be because of yours newer version of Alteryx. Thanks

First split to rows using "|" as a delimiter
second split to the column using "," as a delimiter
then use dynamic rename to make the first row as header

@slobo Open the workflow in a notepad++ and change the version and save it, then you will be able to open it in your alteryx designer
