Use case

  • importing Parquet files containing JSON into ClickHouse
  • exporting ClickHouse data with JSON columns to Parquet

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice if ClickHouse would support for JSON in Parquet.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Use String columns in ClickHouse as e.g. suggested in #74846 (comment).

Additional context

https://clickhouse.com/docs/interfaces/formats/Parquet currently lists JSON as an unsupported data type. Parquet supports JSON at least technically, cf. https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/master/LogicalTypes.md#json. ClickHouse appears to aim to improve JSON and Parquet support in different areas, see e.g. #74046. It would be nice if this effort would include JSON for Parquet.
