How do you turn off automatic type detection?

[Cody Winchester]

Hi there!

I'm looking at the FAQ on memory allocation strategies for large files in Open Refine, specifically the part where it suggests turning off "detect types automatically" on import.

How do I do that?

Thank you,

Cody Winchester

Hi Cody,

In most importers, you will find this option as a checkbox, as shown in
the attached screenshot.

I will update the wiki so that it reflects the current language.

Oh, I see. It's not an option for every importer -- got it. Thanks!
