For A CSV File
The DataMapper Wizard will guide you through setting the data mapping configuration in three
steps. The first step, is to select the data file. The Data Mapper will allow you to verify that the
right data file is being used by giving you a preview of the raw data inside the file. The second
will then display the different settings it has detected and allow you to change them. A preview
window of the extracted data helps you with choosing the settings. For the third step, click
Finish to extract all the fields inside your file.
