Specifies the header size in table files. An arbitrary header length can be specified through the header is specifier. A header is a text section not used by Qlik Sense.
Syntax:
header is n
header is line
header is n lines
The header length can be given in bytes (header is n), or in lines (header is line or header is n lines). n must be a positive integer, representing the header length. If not specified, header is 0 is assumed. The header is specifier is only relevant for table files.
Example:
This is an example of a data source table containing a header text line that should not be interpreted as data by Qlik Sense.
Using the header is 1 lines specifier, the first line will not be loaded as data. In the example, the embedded labels specifier tells Qlik Sense to interpret the first non-excluded line as containing field labels.
The result is a table with two fields, Col1 and Col2.
