Single-report Form editing and Bulk file ingest solve different jobs. Mixing their parsers is how pipelines invent bugs.
Form is for one editable report with a live rule engine and masked PII view. Bulk is for JSON, XML, CSV, TSV, or NDJSON payloads — including nested batches and row-oriented field-ID files.
- Use Form when an analyst is fixing fields interactively.
- Use Bulk when ops drops a file export or multi-report package.
- Keep Sheets field-ID row mapping on the Sheets path — do not merge that parser onto Bulk incorrectly.
Both surfaces stay open (no login gate) and neither files to a regulator. Pick the surface that matches the artifact you already produce.
