-   `expr` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Expression for the index calculation.
-   `granularity` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The number of granules in the block.
-   `data_compressed_bytes` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The size of compressed data, in bytes.
-   `data_uncompressed_bytes` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The size of decompressed data, in bytes.
