Remarks

This property controls the method that the connector uses to detect column structures and data types.

Available options:

None: All columns are returned as string values. RowScan: The connector scans a sample of rows to infer data types. The RowScanDepth property determines how many rows are scanned. ColumnCount: The connector determines the number of columns to include based on the ColumnCount property, returning all values as strings.

This property is useful for adjusting schema detection based on file structure or performance needs.
