0 0 votes When I am using the select statement to display my data in hive. It displays my data in scattered format. I want to add a delimiter so that when data is been displayed it should be in proper table format.

Clarify it with an example. 0 0 replyShare Rajat Garg 480 points 7 commented Feb 8, 2020 reply flag Even when I'm also selecting any query, I'm also getting data in below scattered format not in proper table format.

You should take a look at some of your data rows to choose the right delimiter. For example, you need to add this to "create table" command if the fields are separated by a semicolon: ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\;' 0 0 replyShare Harshini 140 points 1 1 7 commented Feb 11, 2020 reply flag I did try this but it is not working for me. 0 0 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
