Prevent header row from being indexed

I am receiving duplicate header rows in my output.csv. How do I prevent the header row from being indexed?

my props.conf:

TRANSFORMS-null = setnull

transforms.conf:
[setnull]
DEST_KEY = queue
FORMAT = nullQueue

You need to specify the line that you want to send to the nullqueue. Here is an example where the header line starts with a "#" sign.

transforms.conf

[setnull]
REGEX = ^#
DEST_KEY = queue
FORMAT = nullQueue
