Import Parquet
Preserve column types and query immediately.
Parquet import basics
- 1Attach a .parquet file.
- 2Confirm the table name.
- 3Query it like any other table.
Parquet files import quickly and keep column types intact.
Types are preserved
Parquet keeps the schema defined in the file. There is no extra type detection step during import.
Tip
If you need a different type, use CAST or TRY_CAST in your SQL.
Plan limits still apply
Parquet imports follow your plan’s file size and session limits.
- Max single file size: 1GB.
- Total session size: 2GB.
