SQL INSERT file format

This file format contains an INSERT...VALUES statement to be executed on the destination during the load stage.

Additional data types are stored as follows:

  • datetime and date as ISO strings;
  • decimal as text representation of decimal number;
  • binary depends on the format accepted by the destination;
  • complex depends on the format accepted by the destination.

This file format is compressed by default.

Supported destinations​

Used by default by: DuckDB, Postgres, Redshift.

Supported by: filesystem.

By setting the loader_file_format argument to insert_values in the run command, the pipeline will store your data in the INSERT format to the destination:

info = pipeline.run(some_source(), loader_file_format="insert_values")
