Auto Column Tool

Use Auto Column to evaluate an input datastream and automatically assign a supported data type for each column based on the data contained within the column.

Note that the tool correctly assigns a numeric column to a string data type where any row starts with zero and not a number.

Configure the Tool

Under Select Columns to Change, select the checkbox for the columns to autoconfigure. You can select the checkbox for each column individually or Select All.

Running a workflow can introduce new columns that were unknown at configuration time. Select the checkbox for Dynamic or Unknown Columns to include dynamic or new columns.
