Mayanakhan
Explorer

I have a CSV file which first row contains the hear fields and remaining rows contains values as below. 

name,application,targeturl,type
ABC,Desktop,google.com,chrome
XYZ,IOS,facebook.com,App
GHI,Andriod,twitter.com,App
KLM,Desktop,gmail.com,firefox

 I have added props.conf as below.

[pp_appeaser]
CHARSET=UTF-8
INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS=csv
HEADER_FIELD_ACCEPTABLE_SPECIAL_CHARACTERS=_
KV_MODE=none
NO_BINARY_CHECK=true
SHOULD_LINEMERGE=false
category=Structured
description=Comma-separated value format. Set header and other settings in "Delimited Settings"
disabled=false
pulldown_type=true

 

In search the header fields are getting as fields and as well as values as below.  also i have tried CHECK_FOR_HEADER" and "HEADER_FIELD_LINE_NUMBER=1" stanzas but i have same results.
