Most text files I have no issue with reading in with the delimiter appropriately and pulling in my data. However, there is one source where, while it has the same delimiter as usual ("|"), isn't being correctly read. When I load the data, it only reads the first line. The details do not load and I get the warning "Too many fields in record 1". Other things to note:
1. I can do a text to column in excel with no issue. So while I suspect there is something different with this text file, it isn't crazy different than usual.
2. I attempted to load without the delimiter and that time I could get my rows. However, when I did a text to column flow, it didn't appropriately separate.
3. I also attempted to copy the exact delimiter that was in the file just in case the "|" was a little different. That didn't help.
I have attached the config and error I am getting.

When you are getting this error it means that you assigned the wrong delimiter.
Try to set it with \0 which means no delimiter and try to see what is the delimiter
I have attempted this as well. The delimiter is definitely the "|" but it is still not breaking it out.
