Hi

Looking for the advice how to on-board the csv file with comma separated values but each field has pipes around it :   |field1|,|field2|,...,|fieldn|

Example:

Header:
ACTIVITY_LOG_Time,INGRESS_EGRESS_IND,DEST_FMLY_CD,DU_ID,CHANNEL,SBMTR_ID,PRPTY_VALUE_TX,BUSINESS_LINE,TECH_FNCTN_ID,ACTVY_STAT_ID,ACTVY_STAT_DS,ACTVY_SCSFL_IN,SMF_ID,DU_TRKNG_NB,PARTY_ACCT_ID,GROUP_USER,TOPIC_3_VALUE_TX,DU_MQMD_TX

Sample Event:
|2020-12-21-02.42.14.242001|,|Ingress|,|ABC|,|ZP00119842239341|,|MQ|,|G0000246|,NULL,|TRA|,|TRAM|,1,|MQ Message Queued|,|Y|,|001|,|ZP00119842239341|,||,|G0000246|,||,| (?åë&?áèä&è???<9d>³ú¬^]P?|


Thank you in advance
