What activity can you use to create a DataTable from an input string?

The activity that allows you to create a DataTable from an input string is "Generate Data Table." This activity is specifically designed to take a delimited string (such as a CSV format) and convert it into a structured DataTable format.

This functionality is useful in scenarios where you receive data in a string format but need to manipulate or perform operations on it as a table. The "Generate Data Table" activity allows you to specify delimiters and any header rows, which helps in accurately shaping the DataTable as intended from the raw input string.

In contrast, the other options serve different purposes:

• "Output Data Table" is used primarily for converting a DataTable into a string format rather than the other way around.

• "Create Data Table" is aimed at manually constructing an empty DataTable with predefined columns and types, rather than transforming a string input into a table.

• "Invoke Data Table," while it suggests a function related to DataTables, does not exist as a standalone activity for transforming strings into DataTables.

Thus, "Generate Data Table" stands out as the correct choice for the task of converting an input string into a DataTable format.
