How to define sections in files?

Dear community!

I'm monitoring a folder with CSV files, and in each file there are two tables in the same sheet.

Is there any way to define each section into 2 sourcetypes or sources?

Thank you for your help 😄

Hi @liav_koren,

if in each row of your file there's something that (with a regex) can be used to identify if the raw belongs to the first or the second sourcetype, it could be possible define a sourcetype and override the second using the regex.

If not, the only way is pre_processing the file with a script that creates two files.

Ciao.
