Format settings

format_display_secrets_in_show_and_select

Enables or disables showing secrets in SHOW and SELECT queries for tables, databases, table functions, and dictionaries.

User wishing to see secrets must also have display_secrets_in_show_and_select server setting turned on and a displaySecretsInShowAndSelect privilege.

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.
1 — Enabled.

Default value: 0.

input_format_skip_unknown_fields

Enables or disables skipping insertion of extra data.

When writing data, ClickHouse throws an exception if input data contain columns that do not exist in the target table. If skipping is enabled, ClickHouse does not insert extra data and does not throw an exception.

Supported formats:

JSONEachRow (and other JSON formats)
BSONEachRow (and other JSON formats)
TSKV
All formats with suffixes WithNames/WithNamesAndTypes
MySQLDump
Native

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.
1 — Enabled.

Default value: 1.

input_format_with_names_use_header

Enables or disables checking the column order when inserting data.

To improve insert performance, we recommend disabling this check if you are sure that the column order of the input data is the same as in the target table.

Supported formats:

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.
1 — Enabled.

Default value: 1.

input_format_with_types_use_header

Controls whether format parser should check if data types from the input data match data types from the target table.

Supported formats:

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.
1 — Enabled.

Default value: 1.

input_format_defaults_for_omitted_fields

When performing INSERT queries, replace omitted input column values with default values of the respective columns. This option applies to JSONEachRow (and other JSON formats), CSV, TabSeparated, TSKV, Parquet, Arrow, Avro, ORC, Native formats and formats with WithNames/WithNamesAndTypes suffixes.

:::note When this option is enabled, extended table metadata are sent from server to client. It consumes additional computing resources on the server and can reduce performance. :::

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.
1 — Enabled.

Default value: 1.

input_format_null_as_default

Enables or disables the initialization of NULL fields with default values, if data type of these fields is not nullable. If column type is not nullable and this setting is disabled, then inserting NULL causes an exception. If column type is nullable, then NULL values are inserted as is, regardless of this setting.

This setting is applicable for most input formats.

For complex default expressions input_format_defaults_for_omitted_fields must be enabled too.

Possible values:

0 — Inserting NULL into a not nullable column causes an exception.
1 — NULL fields are initialized with default column values.

Default value: 1.

The maximum amount of data in bytes to read for automatic schema inference.

Default value: 33554432 (32 Mb).

column_names_for_schema_inference

The list of column names to use in schema inference for formats without column names. The format: 'column1,column2,column3,...'

schema_inference_hints

The list of column names and types to use as hints in schema inference for formats without schema.

Example:

Query:

desc format(JSONEachRow, '{"x" : 1, "y" : "String", "z" : "0.0.0.0" }') settings schema_inference_hints='x UInt8, z IPv4';

Result:

x	UInt8
y	Nullable(String)
z	IPv4

:::note If the schema_inference_hints is not formated properly, or if there is a typo or a wrong datatype, etc... the whole schema_inference_hints will be ignored. :::

schema_inference_make_columns_nullable

Controls making inferred types Nullable in schema inference for formats without information about nullability. If the setting is enabled, the inferred type will be Nullable only if column contains NULL in a sample that is parsed during schema inference.

Default value: true.

input_format_try_infer_integers

If enabled, ClickHouse will try to infer integers instead of floats in schema inference for text formats. If all numbers in the column from input data are integers, the result type will be Int64, if at least one number is float, the result type will be Float64.

Enabled by default.

input_format_try_infer_dates

If enabled, ClickHouse will try to infer type Date from string fields in schema inference for text formats. If all fields from a column in input data were successfully parsed as dates, the result type will be Date, if at least one field was not parsed as date, the result type will be String.

Enabled by default.

input_format_try_infer_datetimes

If enabled, ClickHouse will try to infer type DateTime64 from string fields in schema inference for text formats.

'basic' — Use basic parser.

ClickHouse can parse only the basic YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS or YYYY-MM-DD format. For example, 2019-08-20 10:18:56 or 2019-08-20.

Default value: 'basic'.

See also:

date_time_output_format

Allows choosing different output formats of the text representation of date and time.

Possible values:

simple - Simple output format.

ClickHouse output date and time YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss format. For example, 2019-08-20 10:18:56. The calculation is performed according to the data type's time zone (if present) or server time zone.

input_format_allow_errors_num

Sets the maximum number of acceptable errors when reading from text formats (CSV, TSV, etc.).

The default value is 0.

Always pair it with input_format_allow_errors_ratio.

If an error occurred while reading rows but the error counter is still less than input_format_allow_errors_num, ClickHouse ignores the row and moves on to the next one.

If both input_format_allow_errors_num and input_format_allow_errors_ratio are exceeded, ClickHouse throws an exception.

input_format_allow_errors_ratio

Sets the maximum percentage of errors allowed when reading from text formats (CSV, TSV, etc.). The percentage of errors is set as a floating-point number between 0 and 1.

The default value is 0.

Always pair it with input_format_allow_errors_num.

If an error occurred while reading rows but the error counter is still less than input_format_allow_errors_ratio, ClickHouse ignores the row and moves on to the next one.

If both input_format_allow_errors_num and input_format_allow_errors_ratio are exceeded, ClickHouse throws an exception.

format_schema

Enabled by default.

input_format_json_infer_incomplete_types_as_strings

Allow to use String type for JSON keys that contain only Null/{}/[] in data sample during schema inference. In JSON formats any value can be read as String, and we can avoid errors like Cannot determine type for column 'column_name' by first 25000 rows of data, most likely this column contains only Nulls or empty Arrays/Maps during schema inference by using String type for keys with unknown types.

Example:

SET input_format_json_infer_incomplete_types_as_strings = 1, input_format_json_try_infer_named_tuples_from_objects = 1;
DESCRIBE format(JSONEachRow, '{"obj" : {"a" : [1,2,3], "b" : "hello", "c" : null, "d" : {}, "e" : []}}');
SELECT * FROM format(JSONEachRow, '{"obj" : {"a" : [1,2,3], "b" : "hello", "c" : null, "d" : {}, "e" : []}}');

Values format settings

input_format_values_interpret_expressions

Enables or disables the full SQL parser if the fast stream parser can’t parse the data. This setting is used only for the Values format at the data insertion. For more information about syntax parsing, see the Syntax section.

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.

In this case, you must provide formatted data. See the Formats section.
1 — Enabled.

In this case, you can use an SQL expression as a value, but data insertion is much slower this way. If you insert only formatted data, then ClickHouse behaves as if the setting value is 0.

Default value: 1.

Example of Use

Insert the DateTime type value with the different settings.

SET input_format_values_interpret_expressions = 0;
INSERT INTO datetime_t VALUES (now())

Exception on client:
Code: 27. DB::Exception: Cannot parse input: expected ) before: now()): (at row 1)

SET input_format_values_interpret_expressions = 1;
INSERT INTO datetime_t VALUES (now())

Ok.

The last query is equivalent to the following:

SET input_format_values_interpret_expressions = 0;
INSERT INTO datetime_t SELECT now()

Ok.

input_format_values_deduce_templates_of_expressions

Enables or disables template deduction for SQL expressions in Values format. It allows parsing and interpreting expressions in Values much faster if expressions in consecutive rows have the same structure. ClickHouse tries to deduce the template of an expression, parse the following rows using this template and evaluate the expression on a batch of successfully parsed rows.

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.
1 — Enabled.

Default value: 1.

For the following query:

INSERT INTO test VALUES (lower('Hello')), (lower('world')), (lower('INSERT')), (upper('Values')), ...

If input_format_values_interpret_expressions=1 and format_values_deduce_templates_of_expressions=0, expressions are interpreted separately for each row (this is very slow for large number of rows).
If input_format_values_interpret_expressions=0 and format_values_deduce_templates_of_expressions=1, expressions in the first, second and third rows are parsed using template lower(String) and interpreted together, expression in the forth row is parsed with another template (upper(String)).
If input_format_values_interpret_expressions=1 and format_values_deduce_templates_of_expressions=1, the same as in previous case, but also allows fallback to interpreting expressions separately if it’s not possible to deduce template.

input_format_values_accurate_types_of_literals

This setting is used only when input_format_values_deduce_templates_of_expressions = 1. Expressions for some column may have the same structure, but contain numeric literals of different types, e.g.

(..., abs(0), ...),             -- UInt64 literal
(..., abs(3.141592654), ...),   -- Float64 literal
(..., abs(-1), ...),            -- Int64 literal

Possible values:

0 — Disabled.

In this case, ClickHouse may use a more general type for some literals (e.g., Float64 or Int64 instead of UInt64 for 42), but it may cause overflow and precision issues.
1 — Enabled.

In this case, ClickHouse checks the actual type of literal and uses an expression template of the corresponding type. In some cases, it may significantly slow down expression evaluation in Values.

Default value: 1.
