Aws Athena - Create external table skipping first row

Question

I\'m trying to create an external table on csv files with Aws Athena with the code below but the line TBLPROPERTIES (\"skip.header.line.count\"=\"1\") doesn\'t

Answer 1

I recently tried:

TBLPROPERTIES ('skip.header.line.count'='1')

And it works fine now. This issue arose when I had the column header as a string (timestamp) and the records where actual timestamps. My queries would bomb as it would scan the table and find a string instead of timestamp.

Something like this:

ts
2015-06-14 14:45:19.537
2015-06-14 14:50:20.546
