Joining / merging CSV files that do not share all their headers / column
Paste multiple large csv files with different header orderMerging multiple CSV files for matching and non matching columnsHow to Prefix a column values with an apostrophe ( ' )?Pick columns from a variable length csv fileHow to sum column values for each row in two csv files using bash script?Stack data from multiple delimited files into one, with variable columnsParse file with Awk only when first row matches patternI need to merge multiple .csv files together side by side with unequal number of rowsHow to expand this awk column 2 selector with Bash parameter $1?Count CSV columns and removeMatching columns of different csv files, not working when column value is different lengthFixing a .csv file where some rows have missing columns

}
I have a directory with 1000s of files from a data recording system, and each file can have as many as 40,000 or more rows. The challenge is that sometimes data is not recorded from one or more sensors and thus will be missing eg
File1:
A,B,C,D,F
10,20,10,20,5
File2:
B,C,D,E,F
20,10,20,5,10
File3:
D,E,F
10,30,20
Desired result has all the files merged / joined with a single header. Where an input file is missing a column (because the sensor was broken) that portion is replaced with a null
A,B,C,D,E,F
10,20,10,20,,5
,20,10,20,5,10
,,,10,30,20
The last column, F, is always present because that's the date/time stamp.
I found this answer, however it assumes all headers / columns are the same across all the files
Paste multiple large csv files with different header order
I also found this question Merging multiple CSV files for matching and non matching columns but the answer is not sufficiently complete for me to use it.
Thanks
