## Data Storage Formats
115+
116+
When performing import or export, the default data format is set as [Apache
117+
Parquet][parquet] format. However, you can specify the format using
118+
`DATA_FORMAT` configuration property.
119+
120+
For example in order to import [Apache Avro][avro] format:
121+
122+
```sql
123+
IMPORT INTO MY_SALES_POSITIONS_TABLE
124+
FROM SCRIPT ETL.IMPORT_PATH WITH
125+
BUCKET_PATH = 's3a://exa-bucket/data/avro/retail/sales_positions/*'
126+
DATA_FORMAT = 'AVRO'
127+
...
128+
PARALLELISM = 'nproc()';
129+
```
130+
131+
### Supported storage formats
132+
133+
* [Apache Parquet][parquet]
134+
* [Apache Avro][avro]: currently only import is supported
