About

Converts a text value to a list of text values split at line breaks.

• text: The text value to convert to the list of text values.
• quoteStyle: Specifies how line breaks are handled. The value of quoteStyle can be null. The default value is QuoteStyle.None.
• includeLineSeparators: Specifies whether to include the line break characters in the text. The value of includeLineSeparators can be null. The default value is false.

If a record is specified for quoteStyle (and includeLineSeparators is null), the following record fields can be provided:

• QuoteStyle: Specifies how quoted line breaks are handled.
  • QuoteStyle.Csv: Quoted line breaks are treated as part of the data, not as the end of the current row.
  • QuoteStyle.None: All line breaks are treated as the end of the current row, even when they occur inside a quoted value. This value is the default if the CsvStyle option isn't specified.
• CsvStyle: Specifies how quotes are handled. Should not be used with QuoteStyle.None.
  • CsvStyle.QuoteAfterDelimiter: Quotes in a field are only significant immediately following the Delimiter.
  • CsvStyle.QuoteAlways: Quotes in a field are always significant, regardless of where they appear.
• Delimiter: A single character delimiter. Should be used only with CsvStyle.QuoteAfterDelimiter.
• IncludeLineSeparators: Specifies whether to include the line break characters in the text. The default value is false.
