    <title>topic unique sourcetype appends a -2 in Getting Data In</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello, We are using inputs.conf and props.conf to ingest a flat csv file. The issue we are having is the sourcetype name is appending a -2 to the sourcetype even though it is a unique name. Example: sourcetype=sourcetypename | results sourcetypename-2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;LI-CODE lang="markup"&gt;#inputs.conf
[monitor://C:\Import\sample.csv]
index= test 
sourcetype= sourcetypename&lt;/LI-CODE&gt;&lt;LI-CODE lang="markup"&gt;#props.conf 
[sourcetypename] 
FIELD_DELIMITER=, 
CHECK_FOR_HEADER = true 
HEADER_MODE = firstline&lt;/LI-CODE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;Any help would be appreciated!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
