Options to write to Parquet format in Azure Data Flows

Question

What options should I specify if I am writing to Parquet format in Azure Data Flows. Specified name of file in settings of Sink(Pattern --> filename.parquet)

Compression type is Snappy as per documentation

learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/format-parquet#dataset-properties

but what about compression level, Delimiter (column and row). As far as I know, all these should not be popping up when I choose Snappy and Parquet formats.

Hello @Krishnamohan Nadimpalli ,
Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

As we understand the ask here is do we need compression level, Delimiter (column and row) , when dealing the snappy compression , please do let us know if its not accurate.
I agree with you that we may not be in need all the other options when yiou select snappy . I am reaching out to the internal team on this .

Please do let me if you have any queries.
Thanks
Himanshu
