Specifies whether the provider generates a RowNumber column to identify records when no custom schema is defined.

Syntax

Connect-CSV -UseRowNumbers SwitchParameter

Data Type

bool

Default Value

false

Remarks

When this property is set to true, the cmdlet creates a new column named RowNumber and uses it as the key for update and delete operations. When set to false, no row number column is created, and a custom schema must define a key column for modification operations.

This property is useful for performing update or delete operations on CSV files that do not include a natural primary key.
