Getting Data In

Blank Values being filled with data

Hi all,

I am uploading a csv which has two columns, Status and Flag. I am having issues where the Flag field is being populated with the value which is set in the status field even when flag is blank.

i.e. If status is O and Flag is blank then Flag is being populated with O as well.

 

Can you help?

I found out the issue. The sourcetype was associated with a field which had been created previously. I removed the sourcetype which was a test and created a new one which resolved the issue.
