File Compression Level
The compression level to apply for the Azure Data Factory target File Dataset.
The value is emitted as the CompressionLevel attribute on the generated DelimitedText, Json, and Xml file datasets. For source-stage file connections, the compression level defined on the source file metadata is used instead of this setting. When the setting is blank, the attribute is omitted.
When to Change This Setting
Set a compression level together with File Compression Codec when you want to trade file size against copy throughput for compressed datasets.
