Hello,

Very minor feature request.

Have a good day,  
Joachim

**1. What is your feature/integration request?**  
Adding “split header” checkbox in the split column block.

**2. What problem would this feature/integration solve?**  
It’s very minor but would avoid renaming all columns.

**3. How do you solve/workaround this problem today?**  
Renaming all columns

Hi Joachim,

Thanks for your feature request!

One question – does your source data name the column headers like that or is that a response from an API?

It was a response from an API that was not processed correctly.  
I solved it using the split column block but in the end I found a csv source instead which was working right away.
