The sample file for it looks like this:

Panel
001\|d\|002\|003\|001\|a\|002\|003\|001\|b\|002\|003\|001\|b\|002\|003\|001\|c\|002\|003\|001\|d\|002\|003\|001\|d\|002\|003\|001\|e\|002\|004\|

The second column is considered to contain the key expression.
Sample file with corresponding file mask is sent to the eagle_ml-2-0_default_cm_ndfa stream.

Workflow has been successfully executed:
