#### `EXTERN` to export to a destination

`EXTERN` can be used to specify a destination where you want to export data to.
This variation of EXTERN requires one argument, the details of the destination as specified below.
This variation additionally requires an `AS` clause to specify the format of the exported rows.
You can use `EXTERN` to specify a destination to export data.
This variation of `EXTERN` accepts the details of the destination as the only argument and requires an `AS` clause to specify the format of the exported rows.

When you export data, Druid creates metadata files in a subdirectory named `_symlink_format_manifest`.
Within the `_symlink_format_manifest/manifest` directory, the `manifest` file lists absolute paths to exported files using the symlink manifest format. For example:

While exporting data, some metadata files will also be created at the destination in addition to the data. These files will be created in a directory `_symlink_format_manifest`.
- `_symlink_format_manifest/manifest`: Lists the files which were created as part of the export. The file is in the symlink manifest format, and consists of a list of absolute paths to the files created.

Keep the following in mind when using EXTERN to export rows:
- Only INSERT statements are supported.
- Only `CSV` format is supported as an export format.
- Partitioning (`PARTITIONED BY`) and clustering (`CLUSTERED BY`) aren't supported with export statements.
- You can export to Amazon S3 or local storage.
- Partitioning (`PARTITIONED BY`) and clustering (`CLUSTERED BY`) aren't supported with EXTERN statements.
- You can export to Amazon S3, Google GCS, or local storage.
- The destination provided should contain no other files or directories.

When you export data, use the `rowsPerPage` context parameter to restrict the size of exported files.

##### LOCAL

You can export to the local storage, which exports the results to the filesystem of the MSQ worker.
##### LOCAL - local file storage

You can export queries to local storage. This process writes the results to the filesystem on the MSQ worker.
This is useful in a single node setup or for testing but is not suitable for production use cases.

Export results to local storage by passing the function `LOCAL()` as an argument for the `EXTERN FUNCTION`.
To use local storage as an export destination, the runtime property `druid.export.storage.baseDir` must be configured on the Indexer/Middle Manager.
This value must be set to an absolute path on the local machine. Exporting data will be allowed to paths which match the prefix set by this value.
Arguments to `LOCAL()` should be passed as named parameters with the value in single quotes in the following example:
