COPY INTO for Azure Synapse when column type is bit fails if csv file has 'true/false' or any number other than 1 or 0. Is there a way to avoid this error?

Question

As per the question title, I'm trying to load some data from a csv file into Azure Synapse Analytics using the COPY INTO statement. My table has a bit column and my csv file has a 'true/false' at the index of this bit column, and my COPY INTO command keeps failing. So I've been trying with a few csv files, and anything that is not a 1/0 results in COPY failure.

Inserting through the online SQL editor works fine though.
INSERT INTO [dbo].[testtable] values (0)
INSERT INTO [dbo].[testtable] values (7)
INSERT INTO [dbo].[testtable] values ('true')

result in False,True,True being inserted into the table successfully.

I'm assuming this thread would be updated after the fix, as discussed above. But still wanted to double check if this is still on the radar. Encountering the exact same behavior as the OP.
