+sidebar_label: Access Control and Account Management
+title: Access Control and Account Management
+---
+
+ClickHouse supports access control management based on [RBAC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role-based_access_control) approach.
+
+ClickHouse access entities:
+- [User account](#user-account-management)
+- [Role](#role-management)
+- [Row Policy](#row-policy-management)
+- [Settings Profile](#settings-profiles-management)
+- [Quota](#quotas-management)
+
+You can configure access entities using:
+
+-   SQL-driven workflow.
+
+    You need to [enable](#enabling-access-control) this functionality.
+
+-   Server [configuration files](../operations/configuration-files.md) `users.xml` and `config.xml`.
+
+We recommend using SQL-driven workflow. Both of the configuration methods work simultaneously, so if you use the server configuration files for managing accounts and access rights, you can smoothly switch to SQL-driven workflow.
+
+:::warning
+You can’t manage the same access entity by both configuration methods simultaneously.
+:::
+
+To see all users, roles, profiles, etc. and all their grants use [SHOW ACCESS](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-access-statement) statement.
+
+## Usage {#access-control-usage}
+
+By default, the ClickHouse server provides the `default` user account which is not allowed using SQL-driven access control and account management but has all the rights and permissions. The `default` user account is used in any cases when the username is not defined, for example, at login from client or in distributed queries. In distributed query processing a default user account is used, if the configuration of the server or cluster does not specify the [user and password](../engines/table-engines/special/distributed.md) properties.
+
+If you just started using ClickHouse, consider the following scenario:
+
+1.  [Enable](#enabling-access-control) SQL-driven access control and account management for the `default` user.
+2.  Log in to the `default` user account and create all the required users. Don’t forget to create an administrator account (`GRANT ALL ON *.* TO admin_user_account WITH GRANT OPTION`).
+3.  [Restrict permissions](../operations/settings/permissions-for-queries.md#permissions_for_queries) for the `default` user and disable SQL-driven access control and account management for it.
+
+### Properties of Current Solution {#access-control-properties}
+
+-   You can grant permissions for databases and tables even if they do not exist.
+-   If a table was deleted, all the privileges that correspond to this table are not revoked. This means that even if you create a new table with the same name later, all the privileges remain valid. To revoke privileges corresponding to the deleted table, you need to execute, for example, the `REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES ON db.table FROM ALL` query.
+-   There are no lifetime settings for privileges.
+
+## User Account {#user-account-management}
+
+A user account is an access entity that allows to authorize someone in ClickHouse. A user account contains:
+
+-   Identification information.
+-   [Privileges](../sql-reference/statements/grant.md#grant-privileges) that define a scope of queries the user can execute.
+-   Hosts allowed to connect to the ClickHouse server.
+-   Assigned and default roles.
+-   Settings with their constraints applied by default at user login.
+-   Assigned settings profiles.
+
+Privileges can be granted to a user account by the [GRANT](../sql-reference/statements/grant.md) query or by assigning [roles](#role-management). To revoke privileges from a user, ClickHouse provides the [REVOKE](../sql-reference/statements/revoke.md) query. To list privileges for a user, use the [SHOW GRANTS](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-grants-statement) statement.
+
+Management queries:
+
+-   [CREATE USER](../sql-reference/statements/create/user.md)
+-   [ALTER USER](../sql-reference/statements/alter/user.md#alter-user-statement)
+-   [DROP USER](../sql-reference/statements/drop.md)
+-   [SHOW CREATE USER](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-create-user-statement)
+-   [SHOW USERS](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-users-statement)
+
+### Settings Applying {#access-control-settings-applying}
+
+Settings can be configured differently: for a user account, in its granted roles and in settings profiles. At user login, if a setting is configured for different access entities, the value and constraints of this setting are applied as follows (from higher to lower priority):
+
+1.  User account settings.
+2.  The settings of default roles of the user account. If a setting is configured in some roles, then order of the setting application is undefined.
+3.  The settings from settings profiles assigned to a user or to its default roles. If a setting is configured in some profiles, then order of setting application is undefined.
+4.  Settings applied to all the server by default or from the [default profile](../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#default-profile).
+
+## Role {#role-management}
+
+Role is a container for access entities that can be granted to a user account.
+
+Role contains:
+
+-   [Privileges](../sql-reference/statements/grant.md#grant-privileges)
+-   Settings and constraints
+-   List of assigned roles
+
+Management queries:
+
+-   [CREATE ROLE](../sql-reference/statements/create/role.md)
+-   [ALTER ROLE](../sql-reference/statements/alter/role.md#alter-role-statement)
+-   [DROP ROLE](../sql-reference/statements/drop.md)
+-   [SET ROLE](../sql-reference/statements/set-role.md)
+-   [SET DEFAULT ROLE](../sql-reference/statements/set-role.md#set-default-role-statement)
+-   [SHOW CREATE ROLE](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-create-role-statement)
+-   [SHOW ROLES](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-roles-statement)
+
+Privileges can be granted to a role by the [GRANT](../sql-reference/statements/grant.md) query. To revoke privileges from a role ClickHouse provides the [REVOKE](../sql-reference/statements/revoke.md) query.
+
+## Row Policy {#row-policy-management}
+
+Row policy is a filter that defines which of the rows are available to a user or a role. Row policy contains filters for one particular table, as well as a list of roles and/or users which should use this row policy.
+
+:::warning
+Row policies makes sense only for users with readonly access. If user can modify table or copy partitions between tables, it defeats the restrictions of row policies.
+:::
+
+Management queries:
+
+-   [CREATE ROW POLICY](../sql-reference/statements/create/row-policy.md)
+-   [ALTER ROW POLICY](../sql-reference/statements/alter/row-policy.md#alter-row-policy-statement)
+-   [DROP ROW POLICY](../sql-reference/statements/drop.md#drop-row-policy-statement)
+-   [SHOW CREATE ROW POLICY](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-create-row-policy-statement)
+-   [SHOW POLICIES](../sql-reference/statements/show.md#show-policies-statement)
+
+## Settings Profile {#settings-profiles-management}
+
+Settings profile is a collection of [settings](../operations/settings/index.md). Settings profile contains settings and constraints, as well as a list of roles and/or users to which this profile is applied.
+
+Management queries:
+
+-   [CREATE SETTINGS PROFILE](../sql-reference/statements/create/settings-profile.md#create-settings-profile-statement)

+# ClickHouse Keeper
+import SelfManaged from '@site/docs/en/_snippets/_self_managed_only_automated.md';
+
+<SelfManaged />
+
+ClickHouse Keeper provides the coordination system for data [replication](../engines/table-engines/mergetree-family/replication.md) and [distributed DDL](../sql-reference/distributed-ddl.md) queries execution. ClickHouse Keeper is compatible with ZooKeeper.
+
+## Implementation details {#implementation-details}
+
+ZooKeeper is one of the first well-known open-source coordination systems. It's implemented in Java, and has quite a simple and powerful data model. ZooKeeper's coordination algorithm, ZooKeeper Atomic Broadcast (ZAB), doesn't provide linearizability guarantees for reads, because each ZooKeeper node serves reads locally. Unlike ZooKeeper ClickHouse Keeper is written in C++ and uses the [RAFT algorithm](https://raft.github.io/) [implementation](https://github.com/eBay/NuRaft). This algorithm allows linearizability for reads and writes, and has several open-source implementations in different languages.
+
+By default, ClickHouse Keeper provides the same guarantees as ZooKeeper (linearizable writes, non-linearizable reads). It has a compatible client-server protocol, so any standard ZooKeeper client can be used to interact with ClickHouse Keeper. Snapshots and logs have an incompatible format with ZooKeeper, but the `clickhouse-keeper-converter` tool enables the conversion of ZooKeeper data to ClickHouse Keeper snapshots. The interserver protocol in ClickHouse Keeper is also incompatible with ZooKeeper so a mixed ZooKeeper / ClickHouse Keeper cluster is impossible.
+
+ClickHouse Keeper supports Access Control Lists (ACLs) the same way as [ZooKeeper](https://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.1.2/zookeeperProgrammers.html#sc_ZooKeeperAccessControl) does. ClickHouse Keeper supports the same set of permissions and has the identical built-in schemes: `world`, `auth` and `digest`. The digest authentication scheme uses the pair `username:password`, the password is encoded in Base64.
+
+:::note
+External integrations are not supported.
+:::
+
+## Configuration {#configuration}
+
+ClickHouse Keeper can be used as a standalone replacement for ZooKeeper or as an internal part of the ClickHouse server. In both cases the configuration is almost the same `.xml` file. The main ClickHouse Keeper configuration tag is `<keeper_server>`. Keeper configuration has the following parameters:
+
+-    `tcp_port` — Port for a client to connect (default for ZooKeeper is `2181`).
+-    `tcp_port_secure` — Secure port for an SSL connection between client and keeper-server.
+-    `server_id` — Unique server id, each participant of the ClickHouse Keeper cluster must have a unique number (1, 2, 3, and so on).
+-    `log_storage_path` — Path to coordination logs, just like ZooKeeper it is best to store logs on non-busy nodes.
+-    `snapshot_storage_path` — Path to coordination snapshots.
+
+Other common parameters are inherited from the ClickHouse server config (`listen_host`, `logger`, and so on).
+
+Internal coordination settings are located in the `<keeper_server>.<coordination_settings>` section:
+
+-    `operation_timeout_ms` — Timeout for a single client operation (ms) (default: 10000).
+-    `min_session_timeout_ms` — Min timeout for client session (ms) (default: 10000).
+-    `session_timeout_ms` — Max timeout for client session (ms) (default: 100000).
+-    `dead_session_check_period_ms` — How often ClickHouse Keeper checks for dead sessions and removes them (ms) (default: 500).
+-    `heart_beat_interval_ms` — How often a ClickHouse Keeper leader will send heartbeats to followers (ms) (default: 500).
+-    `election_timeout_lower_bound_ms` — If the follower does not receive a heartbeat from the leader in this interval, then it can initiate leader election (default: 1000). Must be less than or equal to `election_timeout_upper_bound_ms`. Ideally they shouldn't be equal.
+-    `election_timeout_upper_bound_ms` — If the follower does not receive a heartbeat from the leader in this interval, then it must initiate leader election (default: 2000).
+-    `rotate_log_storage_interval` — How many log records to store in a single file (default: 100000).
+-    `reserved_log_items` — How many coordination log records to store before compaction (default: 100000).
+-    `snapshot_distance` — How often ClickHouse Keeper will create new snapshots (in the number of records in logs) (default: 100000).
+-    `snapshots_to_keep` — How many snapshots to keep (default: 3).
+-    `stale_log_gap` — Threshold when leader considers follower as stale and sends the snapshot to it instead of logs (default: 10000).
+-    `fresh_log_gap` — When node became fresh (default: 200).
+-    `max_requests_batch_size` - Max size of batch in requests count before it will be sent to RAFT (default: 100).
+-    `force_sync` — Call `fsync` on each write to coordination log (default: true).
+-    `quorum_reads` — Execute read requests as writes through whole RAFT consensus with similar speed (default: false).
+-    `raft_logs_level` — Text logging level about coordination (trace, debug, and so on) (default: system default).
+-    `auto_forwarding` — Allow to forward write requests from followers to the leader (default: true).
+-    `shutdown_timeout` — Wait to finish internal connections and shutdown (ms) (default: 5000).
+-    `startup_timeout` — If the server doesn't connect to other quorum participants in the specified timeout it will terminate (ms) (default: 30000).
+-    `four_letter_word_white_list` — White list of 4lw commands (default: `conf,cons,crst,envi,ruok,srst,srvr,stat,wchs,dirs,mntr,isro,rcvr,apiv,csnp,lgif,rqld`).
+
+Quorum configuration is located in the `<keeper_server>.<raft_configuration>` section and contain servers description.
+
+The only parameter for the whole quorum is `secure`, which enables encrypted connection for communication between quorum participants. The parameter can be set `true` if SSL connection is required for internal communication between nodes, or left unspecified otherwise.
+
+The main parameters for each `<server>` are:
+
+-    `id` — Server identifier in a quorum.
+-    `hostname` — Hostname where this server is placed.
+-    `port` — Port where this server listens for connections.
+
+:::note
+In the case of a change in the topology of your ClickHouse Keeper cluster (e.g., replacing a server), please make sure to keep the mapping of `server_id` to `hostname` consistent and avoid shuffling or reusing an existing `server_id` for different servers (e.g., it can happen if your rely on automation scripts to deploy ClickHouse Keeper)
+:::
+
+Examples of configuration for quorum with three nodes can be found in [integration tests](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/tree/master/tests/integration) with `test_keeper_` prefix. Example configuration for server #1:
+
+```xml
+<keeper_server>
+    <tcp_port>2181</tcp_port>
+    <server_id>1</server_id>
+    <log_storage_path>/var/lib/clickhouse/coordination/log</log_storage_path>
+    <snapshot_storage_path>/var/lib/clickhouse/coordination/snapshots</snapshot_storage_path>
+

+            <hostname>zoo3</hostname>
+            <port>9444</port>
+        </server>
+    </raft_configuration>
+</keeper_server>
+```
+
+## How to run {#how-to-run}
+
+ClickHouse Keeper is bundled into the ClickHouse server package, just add configuration of `<keeper_server>` and start ClickHouse server as always. If you want to run standalone ClickHouse Keeper you can start it in a similar way with:
+
+```bash
+clickhouse-keeper --config /etc/your_path_to_config/config.xml
+```
+
+If you don't have the symlink (`clickhouse-keeper`) you can create it or specify `keeper` as an argument to `clickhouse`:
+
+```bash
+clickhouse keeper --config /etc/your_path_to_config/config.xml
+```
+
+## Four Letter Word Commands {#four-letter-word-commands}
+
+ClickHouse Keeper also provides 4lw commands which are almost the same with Zookeeper. Each command is composed of four letters such as `mntr`, `stat` etc. There are some more interesting commands: `stat` gives some general information about the server and connected clients, while `srvr` and `cons` give extended details on server and connections respectively.
+
+The 4lw commands has a white list configuration `four_letter_word_white_list` which has default value `conf,cons,crst,envi,ruok,srst,srvr,stat,wchs,dirs,mntr,isro,rcvr,apiv,csnp,lgif,rqld`.
+
+You can issue the commands to ClickHouse Keeper via telnet or nc, at the client port.
+
+```
+echo mntr | nc localhost 9181
+```
+
+Bellow is the detailed 4lw commands:
+
+- `ruok`: Tests if server is running in a non-error state. The server will respond with `imok` if it is running. Otherwise it will not respond at all. A response of `imok` does not necessarily indicate that the server has joined the quorum, just that the server process is active and bound to the specified client port. Use "stat" for details on state wrt quorum and client connection information.
+
+```
+imok
+```
+
+- `mntr`: Outputs a list of variables that could be used for monitoring the health of the cluster.
+
+```

+
+## Migration from ZooKeeper {#migration-from-zookeeper}
+
+Seamlessly migration from ZooKeeper to ClickHouse Keeper is impossible you have to stop your ZooKeeper cluster, convert data and start ClickHouse Keeper. `clickhouse-keeper-converter` tool allows converting ZooKeeper logs and snapshots to ClickHouse Keeper snapshot. It works only with ZooKeeper > 3.4. Steps for migration:
+
+1. Stop all ZooKeeper nodes.
+
+2. Optional, but recommended: find ZooKeeper leader node, start and stop it again. It will force ZooKeeper to create a consistent snapshot.
+
+3. Run `clickhouse-keeper-converter` on a leader, for example:

+4. Copy snapshot to ClickHouse server nodes with a configured `keeper` or start ClickHouse Keeper instead of ZooKeeper. The snapshot must persist on all nodes, otherwise, empty nodes can be faster and one of them can become a leader.
+
+
+
+## Recovering after losing quorum
+
+Because ClickHouse Keeper uses Raft it can tolerate certain amount of node crashes depending on the cluster size. \
+E.g. for a 3-node cluster, it will continue working correctly if only 1 node crashes.
+
+Cluster configuration can be dynamically configured but there are some limitations. Reconfiguration relies on Raft also
+so to add/remove a node from the cluster you need to have a quorum. If you lose too many nodes in your cluster at the same time without any chance
+of starting them again, Raft will stop working and not allow you to reconfigure your cluster using the conventional way.
+
+Nevertheless, ClickHouse Keeper has a recovery mode which allows you to forcefully reconfigure your cluster with only 1 node.
+This should be done only as your last resort if you cannot start your nodes again, or start a new instance on the same endpoint.
+
+Important things to note before continuing:
+- Make sure that the failed nodes cannot connect to the cluster again.
+- Do not start any of the new nodes until it's specified in the steps.
+
+After making sure that the above things are true, you need to do following:
+1. Pick a single Keeper node to be your new leader. Be aware that the data of that node will be used for the entire cluster so we recommend to use a node with the most up to date state.
+2. Before doing anything else, make a backup of the `log_storage_path` and `snapshot_storage_path` folders of the picked node.
+3. Reconfigure the cluster on all of the nodes you want to use.
+4. Send the four letter command `rcvr` to the node you picked which will move the node to the recovery mode OR stop Keeper instance on the picked node and start it again with the `--force-recovery` argument.
+5. One by one, start Keeper instances on the new nodes making sure that `mntr` returns `follower` for the `zk_server_state` before starting the next one.
+6. While in the recovery mode, the leader node will return error message for `mntr` command until it achieves quorum with the new nodes and refuse any requests from the client and the followers.
+7. After quorum is achieved, the leader node will return to the normal mode of operation, accepting all the requests using Raft - verify with `mntr` which should return `leader` for the `zk_server_state`.

 For production environments we suggest to use separate servers for ClickHouse and ZooKeeper/Keeper, or place ClickHouse files and Keeper files on to separate disks. Because ZooKeeper/Keeper are very sensitive for disk latency and ClickHouse may utilize all available system resources.
 
 You can have ZooKeeper observers in an ensemble but ClickHouse servers should not interact with observers.

+# Hierarchical Dictionaries 
+
+ClickHouse supports hierarchical dictionaries with a [numeric key](../../dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md#numeric-key).
+
+Look at the following hierarchical structure:
+
+``` text
+0 (Common parent)
+│
+├── 1 (Russia)
+│   │
+│   └── 2 (Moscow)
+│       │
+│       └── 3 (Center)
+│
+└── 4 (Great Britain)
+    │
+    └── 5 (London)
+```
+
+This hierarchy can be expressed as the following dictionary table.
+
+| region_id | parent_region | region_name  |
+|------------|----------------|---------------|
+| 1          | 0              | Russia        |
+| 2          | 1              | Moscow        |
+| 3          | 2              | Center        |
+| 4          | 0              | Great Britain |
+| 5          | 4              | London        |
+
+This table contains a column `parent_region` that contains the key of the nearest parent for the element.
+
+ClickHouse supports the [hierarchical](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md#hierarchical-dict-attr) property for [external dictionary](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/) attributes. This property allows you to configure the hierarchical dictionary similar to described above.
+
+The [dictGetHierarchy](../../../sql-reference/functions/ext-dict-functions.md#dictgethierarchy) function allows you to get the parent chain of an element.
+
+For our example, the structure of dictionary can be the following:
+
+``` xml
+<dictionary>
+    <structure>
+        <id>
+            <name>region_id</name>

+# Storing Dictionaries in Memory
+
+There are a variety of ways to store dictionaries in memory.
+
+We recommend [flat](#flat), [hashed](#dicts-external_dicts_dict_layout-hashed) and [complex_key_hashed](#complex-key-hashed), which provide optimal processing speed.
+
+Caching is not recommended because of potentially poor performance and difficulties in selecting optimal parameters. Read more in the section [cache](#cache).
+
+There are several ways to improve dictionary performance:
+
+-   Call the function for working with the dictionary after `GROUP BY`.
+-   Mark attributes to extract as injective. An attribute is called injective if different attribute values correspond to different keys. So when `GROUP BY` uses a function that fetches an attribute value by the key, this function is automatically taken out of `GROUP BY`.
+
+ClickHouse generates an exception for errors with dictionaries. Examples of errors:
+
+-   The dictionary being accessed could not be loaded.
+-   Error querying a `cached` dictionary.
+
+You can view the list of dictionaries and their statuses in the [system.dictionaries](../../../operations/system-tables/dictionaries.md) table.
+
+<CloudDetails />
+
+The configuration looks like this:
+
+``` xml
+<clickhouse>
+    <dictionary>
+        ...
+        <layout>
+            <layout_type>
+                <!-- layout settings -->
+            </layout_type>
+        </layout>
+        ...
+    </dictionary>
+</clickhouse>
+```
+
+Corresponding [DDL-query](../../../sql-reference/statements/create/dictionary.md):
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY (...)
+...
+LAYOUT(LAYOUT_TYPE(param value)) -- layout settings
+...
+```
+
+Dictionaries without word `complex-key*` in a layout have a key with [UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) type, `complex-key*` dictionaries have a composite key (complex, with arbitrary types).
+
+[UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) keys in XML dictionaries are defined with `<id>` tag.
+
+Configuration example (column key_column has UInt64 type):
+```xml
+...
+<structure>
+    <id>
+        <name>key_column</name>
+    </id>
+...
+```
+
+Composite `complex` keys XML dictionaries are defined `<key>` tag.
+
+Configuration example of a composite key (key has one element with [String](../../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md) type):
+```xml
+...
+<structure>
+    <key>
+        <attribute>
+            <name>country_code</name>
+            <type>String</type>
+        </attribute>
+    </key>

+
+### flat
+
+The dictionary is completely stored in memory in the form of flat arrays. How much memory does the dictionary use? The amount is proportional to the size of the largest key (in space used).
+
+The dictionary key has the [UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) type and the value is limited to `max_array_size` (by default — 500,000). If a larger key is discovered when creating the dictionary, ClickHouse throws an exception and does not create the dictionary. Dictionary flat arrays initial size is controlled by `initial_array_size` setting (by default — 1024).
+
+All types of sources are supported. When updating, data (from a file or from a table) is read in it entirety.
+
+This method provides the best performance among all available methods of storing the dictionary.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <flat>
+    <initial_array_size>50000</initial_array_size>
+    <max_array_size>5000000</max_array_size>
+  </flat>
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(FLAT(INITIAL_ARRAY_SIZE 50000 MAX_ARRAY_SIZE 5000000))
+```
+
+### hashed
+
+The dictionary is completely stored in memory in the form of a hash table. The dictionary can contain any number of elements with any identifiers In practice, the number of keys can reach tens of millions of items.
+
+The dictionary key has the [UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) type.
+
+All types of sources are supported. When updating, data (from a file or from a table) is read in its entirety.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <hashed />
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(HASHED())
+```
+
+If `shards` greater then 1 (default is `1`) the dictionary will load data in parallel, useful if you have huge amount of elements in one dictionary.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <hashed>
+    <shards>10</shards>
+    <!-- Size of the backlog for blocks in parallel queue.
+
+         Since the bottleneck in parallel loading is rehash, and so to avoid
+         stalling because of thread is doing rehash, you need to have some
+         backlog.
+
+         10000 is good balance between memory and speed.
+         Even for 10e10 elements and can handle all the load without starvation. -->
+    <shard_load_queue_backlog>10000</shard_load_queue_backlog>
+  </hashed>
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(HASHED(SHARDS 10 [SHARD_LOAD_QUEUE_BACKLOG 10000]))
+```
+
+### sparse_hashed
+
+Similar to `hashed`, but uses less memory in favor more CPU usage.
+
+The dictionary key has the [UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) type.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <sparse_hashed />
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(SPARSE_HASHED())
+```
+
+It is also possible to use `shards` for this type of dictionary, and again it is more important for `sparse_hashed` then for `hashed`, since `sparse_hashed` is slower.
+
+### complex_key_hashed
+
+This type of storage is for use with composite [keys](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md). Similar to `hashed`.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <complex_key_hashed>
+    <shards>1</shards>
+    <!-- <shard_load_queue_backlog>10000</shard_load_queue_backlog> -->
+  </complex_key_hashed>
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(COMPLEX_KEY_HASHED([SHARDS 1] [SHARD_LOAD_QUEUE_BACKLOG 10000]))
+```
+
+### complex_key_sparse_hashed
+
+This type of storage is for use with composite [keys](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md). Similar to [sparse_hashed](#dicts-external_dicts_dict_layout-sparse_hashed).
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <complex_key_sparse_hashed>
+    <shards>1</shards>
+  </complex_key_sparse_hashed>
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(COMPLEX_KEY_SPARSE_HASHED([SHARDS 1] [SHARD_LOAD_QUEUE_BACKLOG 10000]))
+```
+
+### hashed_array
+
+The dictionary is completely stored in memory. Each attribute is stored in an array. The key attribute is stored in the form of a hashed table where value is an index in the attributes array. The dictionary can contain any number of elements with any identifiers. In practice, the number of keys can reach tens of millions of items.
+
+The dictionary key has the [UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) type.
+
+All types of sources are supported. When updating, data (from a file or from a table) is read in its entirety.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <hashed_array>
+  </hashed_array>
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(HASHED_ARRAY())
+```
+
+### complex_key_hashed_array
+
+This type of storage is for use with composite [keys](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md). Similar to [hashed_array](#dicts-external_dicts_dict_layout-hashed-array).
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <complex_key_hashed_array />
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(COMPLEX_KEY_HASHED_ARRAY())
+```
+
+### range_hashed
+
+The dictionary is stored in memory in the form of a hash table with an ordered array of ranges and their corresponding values.
+
+The dictionary key has the [UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) type.
+This storage method works the same way as hashed and allows using date/time (arbitrary numeric type) ranges in addition to the key.
+
+Example: The table contains discounts for each advertiser in the format:
+
+``` text
+┌─advertiser_id─┬─discount_start_date─┬─discount_end_date─┬─amount─┐
+│           123 │          2015-01-16 │        2015-01-31 │   0.25 │
+│           123 │          2015-01-01 │        2015-01-15 │   0.15 │
+│           456 │          2015-01-01 │        2015-01-15 │   0.05 │
+└───────────────┴─────────────────────┴───────────────────┴────────┘
+```
+
+To use a sample for date ranges, define the `range_min` and `range_max` elements in the [structure](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md). These elements must contain elements `name` and `type` (if `type` is not specified, the default type will be used - Date). `type` can be any numeric type (Date / DateTime / UInt64 / Int32 / others).
+
+:::warning
+Values of `range_min` and `range_max` should fit in `Int64` type.
+:::
+
+Example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+    <range_hashed>
+        <!-- Strategy for overlapping ranges (min/max). Default: min (return a matching range with the min(range_min -> range_max) value) -->
+        <range_lookup_strategy>min</range_lookup_strategy>
+    </range_hashed>
+</layout>
+<structure>
+    <id>
+        <name>advertiser_id</name>
+    </id>
+    <range_min>
+        <name>discount_start_date</name>
+        <type>Date</type>
+    </range_min>
+    <range_max>
+        <name>discount_end_date</name>
+        <type>Date</type>
+    </range_max>
+    ...
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY discounts_dict (
+    advertiser_id UInt64,
+    discount_start_date Date,
+    discount_end_date Date,
+    amount Float64
+)
+PRIMARY KEY id
+SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(TABLE 'discounts'))
+LIFETIME(MIN 1 MAX 1000)
+LAYOUT(RANGE_HASHED(range_lookup_strategy 'max'))
+RANGE(MIN discount_start_date MAX discount_end_date)
+```
+
+To work with these dictionaries, you need to pass an additional argument to the `dictGet` function, for which a range is selected:
+
+``` sql
+dictGet('dict_name', 'attr_name', id, date)
+```
+Query example:
+
+``` sql
+SELECT dictGet('discounts_dict', 'amount', 1, '2022-10-20'::Date);
+```
+
+This function returns the value for the specified `id`s and the date range that includes the passed date.
+
+Details of the algorithm:
+
+-   If the `id` is not found or a range is not found for the `id`, it returns the default value of the attribute's type.
+-   If there are overlapping ranges and `range_lookup_strategy=min`, it returns a matching range with minimal `range_min`, if several ranges found, it returns a range with minimal `range_max`, if again several ranges found (several ranges had the same `range_min` and `range_max` it returns a random range of them.
+-   If there are overlapping ranges and `range_lookup_strategy=max`, it returns a matching range with maximal `range_min`, if several ranges found, it returns a range with maximal `range_max`, if again several ranges found (several ranges had the same `range_min` and `range_max` it returns a random range of them.
+-   If the `range_max` is `NULL`, the range is open. `NULL` is treated as maximal possible value. For the `range_min` `1970-01-01` or `0` (-MAX_INT) can be used as the open value.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<clickhouse>
+    <dictionary>
+        ...
+
+        <layout>
+            <range_hashed />

+
+### complex_key_range_hashed
+
+The dictionary is stored in memory in the form of a hash table with an ordered array of ranges and their corresponding values (see [range_hashed](#range-hashed)). This type of storage is for use with composite [keys](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md).
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY range_dictionary
+(
+  CountryID UInt64,
+  CountryKey String,
+  StartDate Date,
+  EndDate Date,
+  Tax Float64 DEFAULT 0.2
+)
+PRIMARY KEY CountryID, CountryKey
+SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(TABLE 'date_table'))
+LIFETIME(MIN 1 MAX 1000)
+LAYOUT(COMPLEX_KEY_RANGE_HASHED())
+RANGE(MIN StartDate MAX EndDate);
+```
+
+### cache
+
+The dictionary is stored in a cache that has a fixed number of cells. These cells contain frequently used elements.
+
+The dictionary key has the [UInt64](../../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) type.
+
+When searching for a dictionary, the cache is searched first. For each block of data, all keys that are not found in the cache or are outdated are requested from the source using `SELECT attrs... FROM db.table WHERE id IN (k1, k2, ...)`. The received data is then written to the cache.
+
+If keys are not found in dictionary, then update cache task is created and added into update queue. Update queue properties can be controlled with settings `max_update_queue_size`, `update_queue_push_timeout_milliseconds`, `query_wait_timeout_milliseconds`, `max_threads_for_updates`.
+
+For cache dictionaries, the expiration [lifetime](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-lifetime.md) of data in the cache can be set. If more time than `lifetime` has passed since loading the data in a cell, the cell’s value is not used and key becomes expired. The key is re-requested the next time it needs to be used. This behaviour can be configured with setting `allow_read_expired_keys`.
+
+This is the least effective of all the ways to store dictionaries. The speed of the cache depends strongly on correct settings and the usage scenario. A cache type dictionary performs well only when the hit rates are high enough (recommended 99% and higher). You can view the average hit rate in the [system.dictionaries](../../../operations/system-tables/dictionaries.md) table.
+
+If setting `allow_read_expired_keys` is set to 1, by default 0. Then dictionary can support asynchronous updates. If a client requests keys and all of them are in cache, but some of them are expired, then dictionary will return expired keys for a client and request them asynchronously from the source.
+
+To improve cache performance, use a subquery with `LIMIT`, and call the function with the dictionary externally.
+
+All types of sources are supported.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+    <cache>
+        <!-- The size of the cache, in number of cells. Rounded up to a power of two. -->
+        <size_in_cells>1000000000</size_in_cells>
+        <!-- Allows to read expired keys. -->
+        <allow_read_expired_keys>0</allow_read_expired_keys>
+        <!-- Max size of update queue. -->
+        <max_update_queue_size>100000</max_update_queue_size>
+        <!-- Max timeout in milliseconds for push update task into queue. -->
+        <update_queue_push_timeout_milliseconds>10</update_queue_push_timeout_milliseconds>
+        <!-- Max wait timeout in milliseconds for update task to complete. -->
+        <query_wait_timeout_milliseconds>60000</query_wait_timeout_milliseconds>
+        <!-- Max threads for cache dictionary update. -->
+        <max_threads_for_updates>4</max_threads_for_updates>
+    </cache>
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LAYOUT(CACHE(SIZE_IN_CELLS 1000000000))
+```
+
+Set a large enough cache size. You need to experiment to select the number of cells:
+
+1.  Set some value.
+2.  Run queries until the cache is completely full.
+3.  Assess memory consumption using the `system.dictionaries` table.
+4.  Increase or decrease the number of cells until the required memory consumption is reached.
+
+:::warning
+Do not use ClickHouse as a source, because it is slow to process queries with random reads.

+
+The dictionary is not stored in memory and directly goes to the source during the processing of a request.

+
+All types of [sources](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-sources.md), except local files, are supported.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<layout>
+  <direct />

+
+### ip_trie
+
+This type of storage is for mapping network prefixes (IP addresses) to metadata such as ASN.
+
+**Example**
+
+Suppose we have a table in ClickHouse that contains our IP prefixes and mappings:
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE my_ip_addresses (
+	prefix String,
+	asn UInt32,
+	cca2 String
+)
+ENGINE = MergeTree
+PRIMARY KEY prefix;
+```
+
+```sql
+INSERT INTO my_ip_addresses VALUES
+	('202.79.32.0/20', 17501, 'NP'),
+    ('2620:0:870::/48', 3856, 'US'),
+    ('2a02:6b8:1::/48', 13238, 'RU'),
+    ('2001:db8::/32', 65536, 'ZZ')
+;
+```
+
+Let's define an `ip_trie` dictionary for this table. The `ip_trie` layout requires a composite key:
+
+``` xml
+<structure>
+    <key>
+        <attribute>
+            <name>prefix</name>
+            <type>String</type>
+        </attribute>
+    </key>
+    <attribute>
+            <name>asn</name>
+            <type>UInt32</type>
+            <null_value />
+    </attribute>
+    <attribute>
+            <name>cca2</name>
+            <type>String</type>
+            <null_value>??</null_value>
+    </attribute>
+    ...
+</structure>
+<layout>
+    <ip_trie>
+        <!-- Key attribute `prefix` can be retrieved via dictGetString. -->
+        <!-- This option increases memory usage. -->
+        <access_to_key_from_attributes>true</access_to_key_from_attributes>
+    </ip_trie>
+</layout>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY my_ip_trie_dictionary (
+    prefix String,
+    asn UInt32,
+    cca2 String DEFAULT '??'
+)
+PRIMARY KEY prefix
+SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(TABLE 'my_ip_addresses'))
+LAYOUT(IP_TRIE)
+LIFETIME(3600);
+```
+
+The key must have only one `String` type attribute that contains an allowed IP prefix. Other types are not supported yet.
+
+For queries, you must use the same functions (`dictGetT` with a tuple) as for dictionaries with composite keys. The syntax is:
+
+``` sql
+dictGetT('dict_name', 'attr_name', tuple(ip))
+```
+
+The function takes either `UInt32` for IPv4, or `FixedString(16)` for IPv6. For example:
+
+``` sql
+select dictGet('my_ip_trie_dictionary', 'asn', tuple(IPv6StringToNum('2001:db8::1')))
+```
+
+Other types are not supported yet. The function returns the attribute for the prefix that corresponds to this IP address. If there are overlapping prefixes, the most specific one is returned.
+
+Data must completely fit into RAM.

+
+# Dictionary Updates 
+
+ClickHouse periodically updates the dictionaries. The update interval for fully downloaded dictionaries and the invalidation interval for cached dictionaries are defined in the `lifetime` tag in seconds.
+
+Dictionary updates (other than loading for first use) do not block queries. During updates, the old version of a dictionary is used. If an error occurs during an update, the error is written to the server log, and queries continue using the old version of dictionaries.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+<CloudDetails />
+
+``` xml
+<dictionary>
+    ...
+    <lifetime>300</lifetime>
+    ...
+</dictionary>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY (...)
+...
+LIFETIME(300)
+...
+```
+
+Setting `<lifetime>0</lifetime>` (`LIFETIME(0)`) prevents dictionaries from updating.
+
+You can set a time interval for updates, and ClickHouse will choose a uniformly random time within this range. This is necessary in order to distribute the load on the dictionary source when updating on a large number of servers.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<dictionary>
+    ...
+    <lifetime>
+        <min>300</min>
+        <max>360</max>
+    </lifetime>
+    ...
+</dictionary>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+LIFETIME(MIN 300 MAX 360)
+```
+
+If `<min>0</min>` and `<max>0</max>`, ClickHouse does not reload the dictionary by timeout.
+In this case, ClickHouse can reload the dictionary earlier if the dictionary configuration file was changed or the `SYSTEM RELOAD DICTIONARY` command was executed.
+
+When updating the dictionaries, the ClickHouse server applies different logic depending on the type of [source](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-sources.md):
+
+-   For a text file, it checks the time of modification. If the time differs from the previously recorded time, the dictionary is updated.
+-   For MySQL source, the time of modification is checked using a `SHOW TABLE STATUS` query (in case of MySQL 8 you need to disable meta-information caching in MySQL by `set global information_schema_stats_expiry=0`).
+-   Dictionaries from other sources are updated every time by default.
+
+For other sources (ODBC, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, etc), you can set up a query that will update the dictionaries only if they really changed, rather than each time. To do this, follow these steps:
+
+-   The dictionary table must have a field that always changes when the source data is updated.
+-   The settings of the source must specify a query that retrieves the changing field. The ClickHouse server interprets the query result as a row, and if this row has changed relative to its previous state, the dictionary is updated. Specify the query in the `<invalidate_query>` field in the settings for the [source](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-sources.md).
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<dictionary>
+    ...
+    <odbc>
+      ...
+      <invalidate_query>SELECT update_time FROM dictionary_source where id = 1</invalidate_query>
+    </odbc>
+    ...
+</dictionary>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+...
+SOURCE(ODBC(... invalidate_query 'SELECT update_time FROM dictionary_source where id = 1'))
+...
+```
+
+For `Cache`, `ComplexKeyCache`, `SSDCache`, and `SSDComplexKeyCache` dictionaries both synchronious and asynchronious updates are supported.
+
+It is also possible for `Flat`, `Hashed`, `ComplexKeyHashed` dictionaries to only request data that was changed after the previous update. If `update_field` is specified as part of the dictionary source configuration, value of the previous update time in seconds will be added to the data request. Depends on source type (Executable, HTTP, MySQL, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, or ODBC) different logic will be applied to `update_field` before request data from an external source.
+
+-   If the source is HTTP then `update_field` will be added as a query parameter with the last update time as the parameter value.
+-   If the source is Executable then `update_field` will be added as an executable script argument with the last update time as the argument value.
+-   If the source is ClickHouse, MySQL, PostgreSQL, ODBC there will be an additional part of `WHERE`, where `update_field` is compared as greater or equal with the last update time.
+    - Per default, this `WHERE`-condition is checked at the highest level of the SQL-Query. Alternatively, the condition can be checked in any other `WHERE`-clause within the query using the `{condition}`-keyword. Example:
+    ```sql
+    ...
+    SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(... 
+        update_field 'added_time' 
+        QUERY '
+            SELECT my_arr.1 AS x, my_arr.2 AS y, creation_time 
+            FROM (
+                SELECT arrayZip(x_arr, y_arr) AS my_arr, creation_time 
+                FROM dictionary_source
+                WHERE {condition}
+            )'
+    ))
+    ...
+    ```
+
+If `update_field` option is set, additional option `update_lag` can be set. Value of `update_lag` option is subtracted from previous update time before request updated data.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<dictionary>
+    ...
+        <clickhouse>
+            ...
+            <update_field>added_time</update_field>
+            <update_lag>15</update_lag>
+        </clickhouse>
+    ...
+</dictionary>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+...
+SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(... update_field 'added_time' update_lag 15))
+...

+...
+```
+
+When configuring the polygon dictionary, the key must have one of two types:
+
+-   A simple polygon. It is an array of points.
+-   MultiPolygon. It is an array of polygons. Each polygon is a two-dimensional array of points. The first element of this array is the outer boundary of the polygon, and subsequent elements specify areas to be excluded from it.
+
+Points can be specified as an array or a tuple of their coordinates. In the current implementation, only two-dimensional points are supported.
+
+The user can [upload their own data](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-sources.md) in all formats supported by ClickHouse.
+
+There are 3 types of [in-memory storage](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-layout.md) available:

+-   `POLYGON_SIMPLE`. This is a naive implementation, where a linear pass through all polygons is made for each query, and membership is checked for each one without using additional indexes.
+
+-   `POLYGON_INDEX_EACH`. A separate index is built for each polygon, which allows you to quickly check whether it belongs in most cases (optimized for geographical regions).
+Also, a grid is superimposed on the area under consideration, which significantly narrows the number of polygons under consideration.
+The grid is created by recursively dividing the cell into 16 equal parts and is configured with two parameters.
+The division stops when the recursion depth reaches `MAX_DEPTH` or when the cell crosses no more than `MIN_INTERSECTIONS` polygons.
+To respond to the query, there is a corresponding cell, and the index for the polygons stored in it is accessed alternately.
+
+-   `POLYGON_INDEX_CELL`. This placement also creates the grid described above. The same options are available. For each sheet cell, an index is built on all pieces of polygons that fall into it, which allows you to quickly respond to a request.
+
+-   `POLYGON`. Synonym to `POLYGON_INDEX_CELL`.
+
+Dictionary queries are carried out using standard [functions](../../../sql-reference/functions/ext-dict-functions.md) for working with dictionaries.
+An important difference is that here the keys will be the points for which you want to find the polygon containing them.
+
+**Example**
+
+Example of working with the dictionary defined above:
+
+``` sql
+CREATE TABLE points (
+    x Float64,
+    y Float64
+)
+...
+SELECT tuple(x, y) AS key, dictGet(dict_name, 'name', key), dictGet(dict_name, 'value', key) FROM points ORDER BY x, y;
+```
+
+As a result of executing the last command for each point in the 'points' table, a minimum area polygon containing this point will be found, and the requested attributes will be output.
+
+**Example**
+
+You can read columns from polygon dictionaries via SELECT query, just turn on the `store_polygon_key_column = 1` in the dictionary configuration or corresponding DDL-query.
+
+Query:
+
+``` sql
+CREATE TABLE polygons_test_table
+(
+    key Array(Array(Array(Tuple(Float64, Float64)))),
+    name String
+) ENGINE = TinyLog;
+
+INSERT INTO polygons_test_table VALUES ([[[(3, 1), (0, 1), (0, -1), (3, -1)]]], 'Value');
+
+CREATE DICTIONARY polygons_test_dictionary
+(
+    key Array(Array(Array(Tuple(Float64, Float64)))),
+    name String
+)
+PRIMARY KEY key
+SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(TABLE 'polygons_test_table'))
+LAYOUT(POLYGON(STORE_POLYGON_KEY_COLUMN 1))
+LIFETIME(0);
+
+SELECT * FROM polygons_test_dictionary;
+```
+
+Result:
+
+``` text
+┌─key─────────────────────────────┬─name──┐
+│ [[[(3,1),(0,1),(0,-1),(3,-1)]]] │ Value │
+└─────────────────────────────────┴───────┘
+```

+# Dictionary Sources
+
+<CloudDetails />
+
+A dictionary can be connected to ClickHouse from many different sources.
+
+If the dictionary is configured using an xml-file, the configuration looks like this:
+
+``` xml
+<clickhouse>
+  <dictionary>
+    ...
+    <source>
+      <source_type>
+        <!-- Source configuration -->
+      </source_type>
+    </source>
+    ...
+  </dictionary>
+  ...
+</clickhouse>
+```
+
+In case of [DDL-query](../../../sql-reference/statements/create/dictionary.md), the configuration described above will look like:
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY dict_name (...)
+...
+SOURCE(SOURCE_TYPE(param1 val1 ... paramN valN)) -- Source configuration
+...
+```
+
+The source is configured in the `source` section.
+
+For source types [Local file](#dicts-external_dicts_dict_sources-local_file), [Executable file](#dicts-external_dicts_dict_sources-executable), [HTTP(s)](#dicts-external_dicts_dict_sources-http), [ClickHouse](#dicts-external_dicts_dict_sources-clickhouse)
+optional settings are available:
+
+``` xml
+<source>
+  <file>
+    <path>/opt/dictionaries/os.tsv</path>
+    <format>TabSeparated</format>
+  </file>
+  <settings>
+      <format_csv_allow_single_quotes>0</format_csv_allow_single_quotes>
+  </settings>
+</source>
+```
+
+or

+## Local File
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<source>
+  <file>
+    <path>/opt/dictionaries/os.tsv</path>
+    <format>TabSeparated</format>
+  </file>
+</source>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+SOURCE(FILE(path './user_files/os.tsv' format 'TabSeparated'))
+```
+
+Setting fields:
+
+-   `path` – The absolute path to the file.
+-   `format` – The file format. All the formats described in [Formats](../../../interfaces/formats.md#formats) are supported.
+
+When a dictionary with source `FILE` is created via DDL command (`CREATE DICTIONARY ...`), the source file needs to be located in the `user_files` directory to prevent DB users from accessing arbitrary files on the ClickHouse node.
+
+**See Also**
+
+-   [Dictionary function](../../../sql-reference/table-functions/dictionary.md#dictionary-function)
+
+## Executable File
+
+Working with executable files depends on [how the dictionary is stored in memory](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-layout.md). If the dictionary is stored using `cache` and `complex_key_cache`, ClickHouse requests the necessary keys by sending a request to the executable file’s STDIN. Otherwise, ClickHouse starts the executable file and treats its output as dictionary data.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<source>
+    <executable>
+        <command>cat /opt/dictionaries/os.tsv</command>
+        <format>TabSeparated</format>
+        <implicit_key>false</implicit_key>
+    </executable>
+</source>
+```
+
+Setting fields:
+
+-   `command` — The absolute path to the executable file, or the file name (if the command's directory is in the `PATH`).
+-   `format` — The file format. All the formats described in [Formats](../../../interfaces/formats.md#formats) are supported.
+-   `command_termination_timeout` — The executable script should contain a main read-write loop. After the dictionary is destroyed, the pipe is closed, and the executable file will have `command_termination_timeout` seconds to shutdown before ClickHouse will send a SIGTERM signal to the child process. `command_termination_timeout` is specified in seconds. Default value is 10. Optional parameter.
+-   `command_read_timeout` - Timeout for reading data from command stdout in milliseconds. Default value 10000. Optional parameter.
+-   `command_write_timeout` - Timeout for writing data to command stdin in milliseconds. Default value 10000. Optional parameter.
+-   `implicit_key` — The executable source file can return only values, and the correspondence to the requested keys is determined implicitly — by the order of rows in the result. Default value is false.
+-   `execute_direct` - If `execute_direct` = `1`, then `command` will be searched inside user_scripts folder specified by [user_scripts_path](../../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-user_scripts_path). Additional script arguments can be specified using a whitespace separator. Example: `script_name arg1 arg2`. If `execute_direct` = `0`, `command` is passed as argument for `bin/sh -c`. Default value is `0`. Optional parameter.
+-   `send_chunk_header` - controls whether to send row count before sending a chunk of data to process. Optional. Default value is `false`.
+
+That dictionary source can be configured only via XML configuration. Creating dictionaries with executable source via DDL is disabled; otherwise, the DB user would be able to execute arbitrary binaries on the ClickHouse node.
+
+## Executable Pool
+
+Executable pool allows loading data from pool of processes. This source does not work with dictionary layouts that need to load all data from source. Executable pool works if the dictionary [is stored](external-dicts-dict-layout.md#ways-to-store-dictionaries-in-memory) using `cache`, `complex_key_cache`, `ssd_cache`, `complex_key_ssd_cache`, `direct`, or `complex_key_direct` layouts.
+
+Executable pool will spawn a pool of processes with the specified command and keep them running until they exit. The program should read data from STDIN while it is available and output the result to STDOUT. It can wait for the next block of data on STDIN. ClickHouse will not close STDIN after processing a block of data, but will pipe another chunk of data when needed. The executable script should be ready for this way of data processing — it should poll STDIN and flush data to STDOUT early.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<source>
+    <executable_pool>
+        <command><command>while read key; do printf "$key\tData for key $key\n"; done</command</command>
+        <format>TabSeparated</format>
+        <pool_size>10</pool_size>
+        <max_command_execution_time>10<max_command_execution_time>
+        <implicit_key>false</implicit_key>
+    </executable_pool>
+</source>
+```
+
+Setting fields:
+
+-   `command` — The absolute path to the executable file, or the file name (if the program directory is written to `PATH`).
+-   `format` — The file format. All the formats described in “[Formats](../../../interfaces/formats.md#formats)” are supported.
+-   `pool_size` — Size of pool. If 0 is specified as `pool_size` then there is no pool size restrictions. Default value is `16`.
+-   `command_termination_timeout` — executable script should contain main read-write loop. After dictionary is destroyed, pipe is closed, and executable file will have `command_termination_timeout` seconds to shutdown, before ClickHouse will send SIGTERM signal to child process. Specified in seconds. Default value is 10. Optional parameter.
+-   `max_command_execution_time` — Maximum executable script command execution time for processing block of data. Specified in seconds. Default value is 10. Optional parameter.
+-   `command_read_timeout` - timeout for reading data from command stdout in milliseconds. Default value 10000. Optional parameter.
+-   `command_write_timeout` - timeout for writing data to command stdin in milliseconds. Default value 10000. Optional parameter.
+-   `implicit_key` — The executable source file can return only values, and the correspondence to the requested keys is determined implicitly — by the order of rows in the result. Default value is false. Optional parameter.
+-   `execute_direct` - If `execute_direct` = `1`, then `command` will be searched inside user_scripts folder specified by [user_scripts_path](../../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-user_scripts_path). Additional script arguments can be specified using whitespace separator. Example: `script_name arg1 arg2`. If `execute_direct` = `0`, `command` is passed as argument for `bin/sh -c`. Default value is `1`. Optional parameter.
+-   `send_chunk_header` - controls whether to send row count before sending a chunk of data to process. Optional. Default value is `false`.
+
+That dictionary source can be configured only via XML configuration. Creating dictionaries with executable source via DDL is disabled, otherwise, the DB user would be able to execute arbitrary binary on ClickHouse node.
+
+## Http(s)
+
+Working with an HTTP(s) server depends on [how the dictionary is stored in memory](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-layout.md). If the dictionary is stored using `cache` and `complex_key_cache`, ClickHouse requests the necessary keys by sending a request via the `POST` method.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<source>
+    <http>
+        <url>http://[::1]/os.tsv</url>
+        <format>TabSeparated</format>
+        <credentials>
+            <user>user</user>
+            <password>password</password>
+        </credentials>
+        <headers>
+            <header>
+                <name>API-KEY</name>
+                <value>key</value>
+            </header>
+        </headers>
+    </http>
+</source>
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+SOURCE(HTTP(
+    url 'http://[::1]/os.tsv'
+    format 'TabSeparated'
+    credentials(user 'user' password 'password')
+    headers(header(name 'API-KEY' value 'key'))
+))
+```
+
+In order for ClickHouse to access an HTTPS resource, you must [configure openSSL](../../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-openssl) in the server configuration.
+
+Setting fields:
+
+-   `url` – The source URL.
+-   `format` – The file format. All the formats described in “[Formats](../../../interfaces/formats.md#formats)” are supported.
+-   `credentials` – Basic HTTP authentication. Optional parameter.
+-   `user` – Username required for the authentication.
+-   `password` – Password required for the authentication.
+-   `headers` – All custom HTTP headers entries used for the HTTP request. Optional parameter.
+-   `header` – Single HTTP header entry.
+-   `name` – Identifiant name used for the header send on the request.
+-   `value` – Value set for a specific identifiant name.
+
+When creating a dictionary using the DDL command (`CREATE DICTIONARY ...`) remote hosts for HTTP dictionaries are checked against the contents of `remote_url_allow_hosts` section from config to prevent database users to access arbitrary HTTP server.
+
+### Known Vulnerability of the ODBC Dictionary Functionality
+
+:::note
+When connecting to the database through the ODBC driver connection parameter `Servername` can be substituted. In this case values of `USERNAME` and `PASSWORD` from `odbc.ini` are sent to the remote server and can be compromised.
+:::
+
+**Example of insecure use**
+
+Let’s configure unixODBC for PostgreSQL. Content of `/etc/odbc.ini`:
+
+``` text
+[gregtest]
+Driver = /usr/lib/psqlodbca.so
+Servername = localhost
+PORT = 5432
+DATABASE = test_db
+#OPTION = 3
+USERNAME = test
+PASSWORD = test
+```
+
+If you then make a query such as
+
+``` sql
+SELECT * FROM odbc('DSN=gregtest;Servername=some-server.com', 'test_db');
+```
+
+ODBC driver will send values of `USERNAME` and `PASSWORD` from `odbc.ini` to `some-server.com`.
+
+### Example of Connecting Postgresql
+
+Ubuntu OS.
+
+Installing unixODBC and the ODBC driver for PostgreSQL:
+
+``` bash
+$ sudo apt-get install -y unixodbc odbcinst odbc-postgresql
+```
+
+Configuring `/etc/odbc.ini` (or `~/.odbc.ini` if you signed in under a user that runs ClickHouse):
+
+``` text
+    [DEFAULT]
+    Driver = myconnection
+
+    [myconnection]
+    Description         = PostgreSQL connection to my_db
+    Driver              = PostgreSQL Unicode
+    Database            = my_db
+    Servername          = 127.0.0.1
+    UserName            = username
+    Password            = password
+    Port                = 5432
+    Protocol            = 9.3
+    ReadOnly            = No
+    RowVersioning       = No
+    ShowSystemTables    = No
+    ConnSettings        =
+```
+
+The dictionary configuration in ClickHouse:
+
+``` xml

+LAYOUT(HASHED())
+LIFETIME(MIN 300 MAX 360)
+```
+
+You may need to edit `odbc.ini` to specify the full path to the library with the driver `DRIVER=/usr/local/lib/psqlodbcw.so`.
+
+### Example of Connecting MS SQL Server
+
+Ubuntu OS.
+
+Installing the ODBC driver for connecting to MS SQL:
+
+``` bash
+$ sudo apt-get install tdsodbc freetds-bin sqsh
+```
+
+Configuring the driver:
+
+```bash
+    $ cat /etc/freetds/freetds.conf
+    ...
+
+    [MSSQL]
+    host = 192.168.56.101
+    port = 1433
+    tds version = 7.0
+    client charset = UTF-8
+
+    # test TDS connection
+    $ sqsh -S MSSQL -D database -U user -P password
+
+
+    $ cat /etc/odbcinst.ini
+
+    [FreeTDS]
+    Description     = FreeTDS

+    FileUsage       = 1
+    UsageCount      = 5
+
+    $ cat /etc/odbc.ini
+    # $ cat ~/.odbc.ini # if you signed in under a user that runs ClickHouse
+
+    [MSSQL]
+    Description     = FreeTDS
+    Driver          = FreeTDS
+    Servername      = MSSQL
+    Database        = test

+## DBMS
+
+### ODBC
+
+You can use this method to connect any database that has an ODBC driver.
+
+Example of settings:
+
+``` xml
+<source>
+    <odbc>
+        <db>DatabaseName</db>
+        <table>ShemaName.TableName</table>

+    connection_string 'DSN=some_parameters'
+    invalidate_query 'SQL_QUERY'
+    query 'SELECT id, value_1, value_2 FROM db_name.table_name'
+))
+```
+
+Setting fields:
+
+-   `db` – Name of the database. Omit it if the database name is set in the `<connection_string>` parameters.
+-   `table` – Name of the table and schema if exists.
+-   `connection_string` – Connection string.
+-   `invalidate_query` – Query for checking the dictionary status. Optional parameter. Read more in the section [Updating dictionaries](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-lifetime.md).
+-   `query` – The custom query. Optional parameter.
+
+:::note
+The `table` and `query` fields cannot be used together. And either one of the `table` or `query` fields must be declared.
+:::
+
+ClickHouse receives quoting symbols from ODBC-driver and quote all settings in queries to driver, so it’s necessary to set table name accordingly to table name case in database.

+-   `port` – The port on the MySQL server. You can specify it for all replicas, or for each one individually (inside `<replica>`).
+
+-   `user` – Name of the MySQL user. You can specify it for all replicas, or for each one individually (inside `<replica>`).
+
+-   `password` – Password of the MySQL user. You can specify it for all replicas, or for each one individually (inside `<replica>`).
+
+-   `replica` – Section of replica configurations. There can be multiple sections.
+
+        - `replica/host` – The MySQL host.
+        - `replica/priority` – The replica priority. When attempting to connect, ClickHouse traverses the replicas in order of priority. The lower the number, the higher the priority.
+
+-   `db` – Name of the database.
+
+-   `table` – Name of the table.
+
+-   `where` – The selection criteria. The syntax for conditions is the same as for `WHERE` clause in MySQL, for example, `id > 10 AND id < 20`. Optional parameter.
+
+-   `invalidate_query` – Query for checking the dictionary status. Optional parameter. Read more in the section [Updating dictionaries](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-lifetime.md).
+
+-   `fail_on_connection_loss` – The configuration parameter that controls behavior of the server on connection loss. If `true`, an exception is thrown immediately if the connection between client and server was lost. If `false`, the ClickHouse server retries to execute the query three times before throwing an exception. Note that retrying leads to increased response times. Default value: `false`.
+
+-   `query` – The custom query. Optional parameter.
+
+:::note
+The `table` or `where` fields cannot be used together with the `query` field. And either one of the `table` or `query` fields must be declared.
+:::
+
+:::note
+There is no explicit parameter `secure`. When establishing an SSL-connection security is mandatory.

+# Dictionary Key and Fields
+
+<CloudDetails />
+
+The `structure` clause describes the dictionary key and fields available for queries.
+
+XML description:
+
+``` xml
+<dictionary>
+    <structure>
+        <id>
+            <name>Id</name>
+        </id>
+
+        <attribute>
+            <!-- Attribute parameters -->
+        </attribute>
+
+        ...
+
+    </structure>
+</dictionary>
+```
+
+Attributes are described in the elements:
+
+-   `<id>` — [Key column](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md#ext_dict_structure-key).
+-   `<attribute>` — [Data column](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md#ext_dict_structure-attributes). There can be a multiple number of attributes.
+
+DDL query:
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY dict_name (
+    Id UInt64,
+    -- attributes
+)
+PRIMARY KEY Id
+...
+```
+
+Attributes are described in the query body:
+
+-   `PRIMARY KEY` — [Key column](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md#ext_dict_structure-key)
+-   `AttrName AttrType` — [Data column](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md#ext_dict_structure-attributes). There can be a multiple number of attributes.
+
+## Key
+
+ClickHouse supports the following types of keys:
+
+-   Numeric key. `UInt64`. Defined in the `<id>` tag or using `PRIMARY KEY` keyword.
+-   Composite key. Set of values of different types. Defined in the tag `<key>` or `PRIMARY KEY` keyword.
+
+An xml structure can contain either `<id>` or `<key>`. DDL-query must contain single `PRIMARY KEY`.
+
+:::warning    
+You must not describe key as an attribute.
+:::
+
+### Numeric Key
+
+Type: `UInt64`.
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<id>
+    <name>Id</name>
+</id>
+```
+
+Configuration fields:
+
+-   `name` – The name of the column with keys.
+
+For DDL-query:
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY (
+    Id UInt64,
+    ...
+)
+PRIMARY KEY Id
+...
+```
+
+-   `PRIMARY KEY` – The name of the column with keys.
+
+### Composite Key
+
+The key can be a `tuple` from any types of fields. The [layout](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-layout.md) in this case must be `complex_key_hashed` or `complex_key_cache`.
+
+:::tip
+A composite key can consist of a single element. This makes it possible to use a string as the key, for instance.
+:::
+
+The key structure is set in the element `<key>`. Key fields are specified in the same format as the dictionary [attributes](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-structure.md). Example:
+
+``` xml
+<structure>
+    <key>
+        <attribute>
+            <name>field1</name>
+            <type>String</type>
+        </attribute>
+        <attribute>
+            <name>field2</name>
+            <type>UInt32</type>
+        </attribute>
+        ...
+    </key>
+...
+```
+
+or
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY (
+    field1 String,
+    field2 String
+    ...
+)
+PRIMARY KEY field1, field2
+...
+```
+
+For a query to the `dictGet*` function, a tuple is passed as the key. Example: `dictGetString('dict_name', 'attr_name', tuple('string for field1', num_for_field2))`.
+
+## Attributes
+
+Configuration example:
+
+``` xml
+<structure>
+    ...
+    <attribute>
+        <name>Name</name>
+        <type>ClickHouseDataType</type>
+        <null_value></null_value>
+        <expression>rand64()</expression>

+        <injective>true</injective>
+        <is_object_id>true</is_object_id>
+    </attribute>

+# Dictionaries 
+
+:::tip Tutorial
+If you are getting started with Dictionaries in ClickHouse we have a tutorial that covers that topic.  Take a look [here](/docs/en/tutorial.md).
+:::
+
+You can add your own dictionaries from various data sources. The source for a dictionary can be a ClickHouse table, a local text or executable file, an HTTP(s) resource, or another DBMS. For more information, see “[Dictionary Sources](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict-sources.md)”.
+
+ClickHouse:
+
+-   Fully or partially stores dictionaries in RAM.
+-   Periodically updates dictionaries and dynamically loads missing values. In other words, dictionaries can be loaded dynamically.
+-   Allows creating dictionaries with xml files or [DDL queries](../../../sql-reference/statements/create/dictionary.md).
+
+The configuration of dictionaries can be located in one or more xml-files. The path to the configuration is specified in the [dictionaries_config](../../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-dictionaries_config) parameter.
+
+Dictionaries can be loaded at server startup or at first use, depending on the [dictionaries_lazy_load](../../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-dictionaries_lazy_load) setting.
+
+The [dictionaries](../../../operations/system-tables/dictionaries.md#system_tables-dictionaries) system table contains information about dictionaries configured at server. For each dictionary you can find there:
+
+-   Status of the dictionary.
+-   Configuration parameters.
+-   Metrics like amount of RAM allocated for the dictionary or a number of queries since the dictionary was successfully loaded.
+
+<CloudDetails />
+
+## Creating a dictionary with a DDL query
+
+Dictionaries can be created with [DDL queries](../../../sql-reference/statements/create/dictionary.md), and this is the recommended method because with DDL created dictionaries:
+- No additional records are added to server configuration files
+- The dictionaries can be worked with as first-class entities, like tables or views
+- Data can be read directly, using familiar SELECT rather than dictionary table functions
+- The dictionaries can be easily renamed
+
+## Creating a dictionary with a configuration file
+
+:::note
+Creating a dictionary with a configuration file is not applicable to ClickHouse Cloud. Please use DDL (see above), and create your dictionary as user `default`.
+:::
+
+The dictionary configuration file has the following format:
+
+``` xml
+<clickhouse>
+    <comment>An optional element with any content. Ignored by the ClickHouse server.</comment>
+
+    <!--Optional element. File name with substitutions-->
+    <include_from>/etc/metrika.xml</include_from>
+
+
+    <dictionary>
+        <!-- Dictionary configuration. -->
+        <!-- There can be any number of <dictionary> sections in the configuration file. -->
+    </dictionary>
+
+</clickhouse>
+```
+
+You can [configure](../../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts-dict.md) any number of dictionaries in the same file.
+
+
+:::note    
+You can convert values for a small dictionary by describing it in a `SELECT` query (see the [transform](../../../sql-reference/functions/other-functions.md) function). This functionality is not related to dictionaries.

+title: "RegExp Tree Dictionary"

+import CloudDetails from '@site/docs/en/sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/_snippet_dictionary_in_cloud.md';
+
+Regexp Tree dictionary stores multiple trees of regular expressions with attributions. Users can retrieve strings in the dictionary. If a string matches the root of the regexp tree, we will collect the corresponding attributes of the matched root and continue to walk the children. If any of the children matches the string, we will collect attributes and rewrite the old ones if conflicts occur, then continue the traverse until we reach leaf nodes.
+
+Example of the ddl query for creating Regexp Tree dictionary:
+
+<CloudDetails />
+
+```sql
+create dictionary regexp_dict
+(
+    regexp String,
+    name String,
+    version String
+)
+PRIMARY KEY(regexp)
+SOURCE(YAMLRegExpTree(PATH '/var/lib/clickhouse/user_files/regexp_tree.yaml'))
+LAYOUT(regexp_tree)
+...
+```
+
+We only allow `YAMLRegExpTree` to work with regexp_tree dicitionary layout. If you want to use other sources, please set variable `regexp_dict_allow_other_sources` true.
+
+**Source**
+
+We introduce a type of source called `YAMLRegExpTree` representing the structure of Regexp Tree dictionary. An Example of a valid yaml config is like:
+
+```xml
+- regexp: 'Linux/(\d+[\.\d]*).+tlinux'
+  name: 'TencentOS'
+  version: '\1'
+
+- regexp: '\d+/tclwebkit(?:\d+[\.\d]*)'
+  name: 'Andriod'
+  versions:
+    - regexp: '33/tclwebkit'
+      version: '13'
+    - regexp: '3[12]/tclwebkit'
+      version: '12'
+    - regexp: '30/tclwebkit'
+      version: '11'
+    - regexp: '29/tclwebkit'
+      version: '10'
+```
+
+The key `regexp` represents the regular expression of a tree node. The name of key is same as the dictionary key. The `name` and `version` is user-defined attributions in the dicitionary. The `versions` (which can be any name that not appear in attributions or the key) indicates the children nodes of this tree. 
+
+**Back Reference**
+
+The value of an attribution could contain a back reference which refers to a capture group of the matched regular expression. Reference number ranges from 1 to 9 and writes as `$1` or `\1`.
+
+During the query execution, the back reference in the value will be replaced by the matched capture group.
+
+**Query**
+
+Due to the specialty of Regexp Tree dictionary, we only allow functions `dictGet`, `dictGetOrDefault` and `dictGetOrNull` work with it.
+
+Example:
+
+```sql
+SELECT dictGet('regexp_dict', ('name', 'version'), '31/tclwebkit1024');
+```
+
+Result:
+
+```
+┌─dictGet('regexp_dict', ('name', 'version'), '31/tclwebkit1024')─┐
+│ ('Andriod','12')                                                │

+
+ClickHouse contains a built-in feature for working with a geobase.
+
+This allows you to:
+
+-   Use a region’s ID to get its name in the desired language.
+-   Use a region’s ID to get the ID of a city, area, federal district, country, or continent.
+-   Check whether a region is part of another region.
+-   Get a chain of parent regions.
+
+All the functions support “translocality,” the ability to simultaneously use different perspectives on region ownership. For more information, see the section “Functions for working with web analytics dictionaries”.
+
+The internal dictionaries are disabled in the default package.
+To enable them, uncomment the parameters `path_to_regions_hierarchy_file` and `path_to_regions_names_files` in the server configuration file.
+
+The geobase is loaded from text files.
+
+Place the `regions_hierarchy*.txt` files into the `path_to_regions_hierarchy_file` directory. This configuration parameter must contain the path to the `regions_hierarchy.txt` file (the default regional hierarchy), and the other files (`regions_hierarchy_ua.txt`) must be located in the same directory.
+
+Put the `regions_names_*.txt` files in the `path_to_regions_names_files` directory.
+
+You can also create these files yourself. The file format is as follows:
+
+`regions_hierarchy*.txt`: TabSeparated (no header), columns:
+
+-   region ID (`UInt32`)
+-   parent region ID (`UInt32`)
+-   region type (`UInt8`): 1 - continent, 3 - country, 4 - federal district, 5 - region, 6 - city; other types do not have values
+-   population (`UInt32`) — optional column
+
+`regions_names_*.txt`: TabSeparated (no header), columns:
+
+-   region ID (`UInt32`)
+-   region name (`String`) — Can’t contain tabs or line feeds, even escaped ones.
+
+A flat array is used for storing in RAM. For this reason, IDs shouldn’t be more than a million.
+
+Dictionaries can be updated without restarting the server. However, the set of available dictionaries is not updated.
+For updates, the file modification times are checked. If a file has changed, the dictionary is updated.
+The interval to check for changes is configured in the `builtin_dictionaries_reload_interval` parameter.
+Dictionary updates (other than loading at first use) do not block queries. During updates, queries use the old versions of dictionaries. If an error occurs during an update, the error is written to the server log, and queries continue using the old version of dictionaries.
+
+We recommend periodically updating the dictionaries with the geobase. During an update, generate new files and write them to a separate location. When everything is ready, rename them to the files used by the server.
+
+There are also functions for working with OS identifiers and search engines, but they shouldn’t be used.

     Для `Decimal` значений учитывается их масштаб: вычисляется результат по базовому целочисленному типу, полученному как `(value * scale)`. Например: `countDigits(42) = 2`, `countDigits(42.000) = 5`, `countDigits(0.04200) = 4`. То есть вы можете проверить десятичное переполнение для `Decimal64` с помощью `countDecimal(x) > 18`.
