    Hello Ganesh, you can use the Tabular Transformation command Change delimiter to make the delimiter comma or tab separated. Encapsulating the data in double quotes will allow you to include commas in your data. For example: "this, is, cell, A1","this, is, cell, A2". The file you upload to a Wdata Table must be either comma separated (.CSV) or tab separated (.TSV). For reference, this requirement is documented at https://support.workiva.com/hc/en-us/articles/360036003291-Wdata-feature-and-API-limits#section1.

    Thanks Jeff. is there a way to encapsulate double quotes within wdata instead of requesting the source to encapsulate?

    Hi Ganesh, the Change delimiter command will encapsulate the data for you as long as your source file is well formed. For example, if your file is pipe delimited it may look like this: this, is, cell A1|this, is, cell, A2. After running it through Change delimiter, the result would be: "this, is, cell, A1","this, is, cell, A2".
