DSV Format
Certain types of data may be provided in a delimiter separated values format.
The default format of the separated values files is largely based on the RFC 4180 standard. The specific requirements are:
- lines end with
CRLF - line breaks cannot be used in values
- any field may be escaped
- the default quote character is
"(double quotes) - any field containing the delimiter must be quoted
- an escape character in an escaped field must be represented by two escape characters
- the first record (row) must contain the names of each field for entries, or each group field for items
- blank lines with no data are ignored
DSV
The basic DSV format must explicitly specify a delimiter.

"type": "dsv",
"object_id":
TSV
The TSV format uses TAB as the default delimiter, but it may be overridden.
{
"type": "tsv",
"object_id":
CSV
The CSV format uses , (comma) as the default delimiter, but it may be overridden.
