I am exporting F&O D365 data to ADLS in CSV format. Now, I am trying to read the CSV stored in ADLS and copy into Azure Synapse dedicated SQL pool table using Azure data factory. However, I can create the pipeline and it's working for few tables without any issue. But it's failing for one table (salesline) because of mismatch in number of column.
Below is the CSV format sample, there is no column name(header) in CSV because it's exported from F&O system and column name stored in salesline.CDM.json file.

I have created ADF pipeline using copy data activity to copy the data from ADLS(CSV) to Synapse SQL table however I am getting below error.
Operation on target Copy_hs1 failed: ErrorCode=DelimitedTextMoreColumnsThanDefined,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=Error found when processing 'Csv/Tsv Format Text' source 'SALESLINE_00001.csv' with row number 4: found more columns than expected column count 6.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common,'
Column mapping looks like below- Because CSV first row has 6 column so it's appearing 6 only while importing schema.
I have repro’d with your sample data and got the same error while copying the file using the copy data activity.
Alternatively, I have tried to copy the file using data flow and was able to load the data without any errors.
Source file:
Data flow:
Source dataset: only the first 6 columns are read as the first row contains only 6 columns in the file.
Source transformation: connect source dataset in source transformation.
Source preview:
Sink transformation: Connect sink to synapse dataset.
Settings:
Mappings:
Sink output:
After running the data flow, data is loaded to the sink synapse table.
Change my csv to xlsx help me to solve this problem in Copy Activity ADF.
1.From Copy data settings set "Fault Tolerance" = "Skip Incompatible rows"
skip incompatible rows
2.From Dataset connection settings set Escape character to Double quotes

i wrote sql server table data to .csv file by using SSIS package. In flat file conncetion i've mentioned semi-colon as delimiter. Some of the values in my table are having commas(for example : CODE A,B,C) in .csv file CODE A is coming into 1st column and B is in 2nd vice-versa. now how can i keep all these values in a first column of .csv file with delimiter as ;
Probably you are opening your flat file in Excel, and opening it as a comma-separated file.
You need to specify to Excel when you open it that your file is delimited by semi-colons. Then it will display correctly.
I am trying to import data from excel csv to MS Access. A column in csv has majority of values like "F0000123". Few Values are "E0000123". While importing this using transfertext to Text column in Access, F0000123 has changed to 123 and E0000123 has been imported as blank with datatype conversion failure. If importing to new blank (no columns defined) table F0000123 importing as $123 and again E0000123 has been imported as blank with datatype conversion failure. Please help why value starting with F have this issue.
Link the csv file as a table. Then create a query to read and convert (purify) the data.
Use this query as source for further processing of the date like appending data to other tables.
Given a CSV file with the following:
id,description,val
111,"abc",0
112,"abc"def",0
How do I insert this data into an SQL Server table using SSIS?
I've currently specified my column delimiter as , and the text qualifier "
You can follow below step by step walk-though. The settings you have done are right for flat file connection manager.

I have Pipe delimited flat files containing data in Romania and Polish languages/characters.
The first row contains the column_names in English.
I enabled the "unicode" check box in Flat File Connection Manager Editor. But the columns are displayed in unknown character(In Columns Tab).
I need to map this data to a table in SQL server 2012. But in the OLE DB Editor, I am getting the same single column as "Available Input Column"enter image description here
Try opening the source file using a file editor like Notepad++
The editor will tell you which codepage has been used
In your Flatfile Connection use the codepage displayed
Source setting:
In Import export wizard, when you select flat file; set Code page: UTF - 8
Destination setting:
Click Edit Mapping, and while mapping, flat file column with table column, choose destination column Type as nvarchar for required columns.
Run the package (or Click Preview) and check the table data, it should work.
