Alternate ways to auto import data from a CSV besides Sync?

Question

I am trying to auto import data from a CSV. I tried syncing to Box/Dropbox. The problem is, the csv I get is saved as UTF-16 and to sync it must be UTF-8.

So in order for me to sync I would need to open up the file, and save-as a different format. I am trying to automate the entire process, so once a human has to open a file and save as, it blows that process.

Is there a way using Pipelines? Can I grab the file from email, or some other spot and parse through it?

Mike,What is the source of the CSV?&nbsp; Can you go upstream one more layer to the parent where the format is different?------------------------------Don Larson------------------------------

Hi Mike,&nbsp; another option...EZ File Importer: Demo hereUpload the csv file to a file attachment field and it automatically kicks off the EZ File importer.&nbsp; No need to open it and resave it.&nbsp; Combined that with Email Parser and you can send an email with the csv as an attachment, Email Parser will upload the file to a file attachment field and kick off EZ File Importer------------------------------Keith Jusas------------------------------
