CSV file format
- All headers and entries are case-sensitive unless indicated.
- When using a mapping CSV file, prefix the column headers belonging to the source connection with Source. Prefix the target connection column headers with Target.
- Make sure the character encoding of the CSV file is set to UTF-8.
