How to load a .dat file with Fixed length format

Summary:

Hello everyone,

I have .dat file with a fixed length format which i would like to use it as a data source. So far i have been unsuccessful since the "Fixed - All Data type" option disappears in the Import Format section.


Content (please ensure you mask any confidential information):

Here is what i have done.

  1. I created an application (Data Source —> On premise File).

2. As next step, I created an Import Format and selected the new application as the source.

In the File Type drop down format, the only available options are Delimited (fixed format is no longer available)

Howdy, Stranger!
