# iceberg Table Function
Provides a read-only table-like interface to Apache [Iceberg](https://iceberg.apache.org/) tables in Amazon S3.
## Syntax
``` sql
iceberg(url [,aws_access_key_id, aws_secret_access_key] [,format] [,structure])
```
## Arguments
- `url` — Bucket url with the path to an existing Iceberg table in S3.
- `aws_access_key_id`, `aws_secret_access_key` - Long-term credentials for the [AWS](https://aws.amazon.com/) account user. You can use these to authenticate your requests. These parameters are optional. If credentials are not specified, they are used from the ClickHouse configuration. For more information see [Using S3 for Data Storage](/docs/en/engines/table-engines/mergetree-family/mergetree.md/#table_engine-mergetree-s3).
- `format` — The [format](/docs/en/interfaces/formats.md/#formats) of the file. By default `Parquet` is used.
- `structure` — Structure of the table. Format `'column1_name column1_type, column2_name column2_type, ...'`.
Engine parameters can be specified using [Named Collections](../../operations/named-collections.md)
**Returned value**
A table with the specified structure for reading data in the specified Iceberg table in S3.
**Example**
```sql
SELECT * FROM iceberg('http://test.s3.amazonaws.com/clickhouse-bucket/test_table', 'test', 'test')
```
Using named collections:
```xml
<clickhouse>
<named_collections>
<iceberg_conf>
<url>http://test.s3.amazonaws.com/clickhouse-bucket/</url>
<access_key_id>test<access_key_id>
<secret_access_key>test</secret_access_key>
<format>auto</format>
<structure>auto</structure>
</iceberg_conf>
</named_collections>
