Hi Gowthamr123

 

For csv, in general you need to avoid the character which you are using as delimiter, and the single row should not be split into multiple rows, meaning there should not be any enter character in between the data of a single record.

@gowthamr123 I realise I'm not answering your question but in case that helps, I found this data prep documentation:

'Escape special characters'
See https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/data-prep/home.html?lang=en#escape-special-characters
