# DocumentDelimiterCSVs

The fields in an XML file that mark the start and end of a document. This option ensures that documents are indexed individually. You must have only one document level in each XML schema.

You must configure `DocumentDelimiterCSVs` if you are using a distribution mode that processes incoming XML data: DistributeByReference, DistributeByFields, DistributeByDate, DistributeSendMinimal, and UseConsistentHashing.

NOTE: The DIH always reads this configuration parameter from the `[Server]` section, even in a unified configuration file.

When identifying fields use the formats:

- `FieldName` to match root-level fields

- `*/FieldName` to match all fields except root-level

- `Path/FieldName` to match fields that the specified path points to.

Type: | String
Default: |
Required: | Yes, if you are using XML data in a distribution mode that processes incoming documents
Configuration Section: | Server
Example: | `DocumentDelimiterCSVs=*/DOCUMENT,*/SPEECH` In this example, the beginning and end of individual documents in a file is marked by opening and closing `DOCUMENT` and `SPEECH` tags.
