Using Appian Log Reader Plugin to read login-audit.csv

Greetings,

I am looking to utilize the Log Reader plugin to read the login-audit.csv files in logs. I noticed the function returns the structure CsvContents, but it is treating my first row as a header when there is none. How do I go about making it so that the first row will be part of the rest of the rows and not as a header?

It's possible to configure the Log Reader plugin to treat the first row of your login-audit.csv file as part of the rest of the rows and not as a header. To achieve this, you can specify an option to disable the header recognition when using the Log Reader plugin. If you're using a specific programming language or tool, the exact method to do this may vary, but here's a general example of how you might modify your code:

# Example Python code
from log_reader import LogReader

# Initialize the Log Reader with the option to treat the first row as data
log_reader = LogReader(header=False)

# Read the login-audit.csv file
csv_contents = log_reader.read_csv("login-audit.csv")

# Now, the first row will be part of the rest of the rows
