Bucket connectors read Parquet files directly from your cloud storage. Evidence queries the data in place using ClickHouse’s S3 table engine—no data is copied. See Connector Types for a comparison of database vs bucket connectors.

​
How Data Updates Work

  • Row changes: When you add, update, or remove rows in a Parquet file, the changes are available immediately in Evidence
  • Schema changes: Adding or removing columns requires clicking Publish or waiting for a scheduled refresh

​
Combining Multiple Files

Multiple Parquet files in the same folder can be combined into a single source. Use the prefix option to specify the folder path. All files must share the same schema.
