How do I handle the spaces in content conversion (file sender)?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have the following line in the input file

121996832:e.mister@email.com{SPACE}{SPACE}{SPACE}{SPACE}{SPACE}

121994536832:w.king@other.com{SPACE}{SPACE}{SPACE}{SPACE}

......

{SPACE}{SPACE} are actual spaces of course..

I want to do a content conversion, and so far I have these settings:

This doesn't seem complete because I get an error in the corresponding communication channel stating that the field names specified are not enough.

It can't be the spaces, because they get removed by default as far as I know?

Hi Zakaria,

MAIL.fieldNames should be number,email not number:email.

Hi Zakaria,

In fieldSeparator you are setting the : like the symbol in the file to separate the fields. In the fieldNames you are setting the fields to be dealt, and this parameter separate its fields always with commas

Ah ok, weird because the documentation says something else, at fieldNames:
