>                 Key: SPARK-27028
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27028
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Question
>          Components: PySpark
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.0
>         Environment: Pyspark(2.4) in AWS EMR
>            Reporter: alokchowdary
>            Priority: Critical

> * I am trying to read the dat file using pyspark csv reader and it contains 
> newline character ("\n") as part of the data. Spark is unable to read this 
> file as single column, rather treating it as new row. I tried using the 
> "multiLine" option while reading , but still its not working.
>  * {{spark.read.csv(file_path, schema=schema, sep=delimiter,multiLine=True)}}
>  * {{}}Data is something like this. Every line below is considered as row in 
> dataframe.
>  * Here  '\x01' is actual delimeter(but used , for ease of reading).
> {{ }}
> {{1. name,test,12345,}}
> {{2. x, }}
> {{3. desc }}
> {{4. name2,test2,12345 }}
> {{5. ,y}}
> {{6. ,desc2}}
>  * {{}}So pyspark is treating x and desc as new row in dataframe, with nulls 
> for other columns.
> How to read such data in pyspark
