File metadata
Section titled “File metadata”Parquet files can carry key/value metadata in their footer. Expand a table in the connection tree and open its Metadata node to see it. Your own keys show at the top, file facts (row count, row groups, the tool that wrote the file, and the format version) sit under File, and tooling-written keys such as pandas or ARROW:schema are tucked under a collapsed System group. Hover a value to read it in full, right-click to copy it, or click a long value to open it in an editor.
