The function accept either a `Resource` created in [Hugo Pipes](/hugo-pipes/) or via [Page Bundles](/content-management/page-bundles/), or simply a string. The two examples below will produce the same map:
```go-html-template
{{ $greetings := "hello = \"Hello Hugo\"" | transform.Unmarshal }}`
```
```go-html-template
{{ $greetings := "hello = \"Hello Hugo\"" | resources.FromString "data/greetings.toml" | transform.Unmarshal }}
```
In both the above examples, you get a map you can work with:
```go-html-template
{{ $greetings.hello }}
```
The above prints `Hello Hugo`.
## CSV Options
Unmarshal with CSV as input has some options you can set:
