That's amazing! Thank you!!!
One follow up question, if that's OK?
If, instead of using hard-coded CSV, I read the CSV into a variable first, then
it fails again with a parse error.
Code below.
So, if I read the CSV into a variable, do I need an additional wrapper method?
Seems like it should still work.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
