Avoid errors when importing Excel/CSV files

Hi,

Whem integrating data from big Excel or CSV files, it would be desirable to have a pre-checking of their data validation. This way it would be easier and faster to detect errors defore the integration task is executed.

This pre-checking could be at the Excel/CSV provider. Its conditions could be:

  • Avoid empty headers
  • Avoid empty cells
  • Ensure a valid number format for certain columns
  • Ensure a regular expression for certain columns
  • Etc

As well, at the job execution log, it would be nice to know the line and data of the execition error, as it is not always displayed.

Regards,
Tomas
