I want Shift-JIS to be added to the encoding options

The idea is:

When extracting data from a file, you will be able to obtain Shift-JIS data without garbling the characters.

My use case:

I’m Japanese.

Unfortunately, when I download a csv file of my credit card statement, it is in Shift-JIS and not UTF-8, so I cannot upload the downloaded file as is.
(The line break code is also CRLF!)

I think it would be beneficial to add this because:

There is no need to take the trouble of converting from Shift-JIS to UTF-8 using a text editor before uploading.

Any resources to support this?

No, Sorry.

Are you willing to work on this?

OK :slight_smile:

I landed on your post with a similar issue of a CSV file encoded in SHIFT-JIS. I later found iconv-lite as a node that can do the conversion to UTF-8 https://www.npmjs.com/package/n8n-nodes-iconv-lite
