.. _auto_curve_import_from_file:

*IMAGE TO TEXT WORKER*
======================

Reads curve data from a file (e.g. CSV) and imports it as a named curve vector for use in downstream workflow nodes. Use this worker whenever raw curve data stored on disk needs to be ingested into a d3VIEW workflow.

When to use
-----------

Tagged: ``csv``, ``curve``, ``file``, ``import``, ``ingest``, ``user``.
