Seperate truncated characters into distinct fields

Inactive User
Not applicable

Hello,

I  have an input tool with a table containing  a single column with string data. The first row of the table contains different strings, seperated by '|' delimiter. The other rows contains truncated characters which are seperated by space. I am trying to use Text To Columns tool to seperate the truncated characters into distinct fields according to the number of strings in the first row but I find it a little bit challenging. 


Any help would be greatly appreciated   


Thanks in advance

Yes, of course @atcodedog05. Actually it is one of the Challenges from Alteryx Community. I attached the input data and the expected output data as .yxdb files. Thank you
