The decimal separator is the character used to separate the integer and fractional parts of a number.
For example, if you have the number 1000.1 in your CSV file, you would select the Dot decimal separator. If you have the same number represented as 1000,1, you would select the Comma decimal separator. | Dot (".") and Comma (","). | | #### **Multi Value Separator**
The multi value separator is the character used to separate multiple values in the same field of the CSV file. | For example, if you have a field for "Tags" and an asset has multiple tags, you can separate them with a character such as a semicolon (";"). | | #### **Complete Date/Time Format**
The complete date/time format determines how dates and times are displayed throughout the app. | The default format is "dd/MM/yyyy h:mm", which displays the date and time in the format "19/Feb/2023 1:37".
You can change the format accordingly. | | #### Reference Asset Fetch Method
