Apache Parquet Format Attributes

In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Type Attributes), this format also adds format-specific attributes (Format Attributes).

Feature attributes correlate to columns in Parquet datasets.

Features generated from a Parquet Reader contain a parquet_type attribute. This attribute indicates that the feature was generated from a Parquet dataset.
