<h2 id="async_insert">
  async\_insert
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Bool" default_value="1" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "26.2"},{"label": "1"},{"label": "Enable async inserts by default."}]}]} />

If true, data from INSERT query is stored in queue and later flushed to table in background. If wait\_for\_async\_insert is false, INSERT query is processed almost instantly, otherwise client will wait until data will be flushed to table

<h2 id="async_insert_busy_timeout_decrease_rate">
  async\_insert\_busy\_timeout\_decrease\_rate
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Double" default_value="0.2" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "24.2"},{"label": "0.2"},{"label": "The exponential growth rate at which the adaptive asynchronous insert timeout decreases"}]}]} />

The exponential growth rate at which the adaptive asynchronous insert timeout decreases

<h2 id="async_insert_busy_timeout_increase_rate">
  async\_insert\_busy\_timeout\_increase\_rate
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Double" default_value="0.2" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "24.2"},{"label": "0.2"},{"label": "The exponential growth rate at which the adaptive asynchronous insert timeout increases"}]}]} />

The exponential growth rate at which the adaptive asynchronous insert timeout increases

<h2 id="async_insert_busy_timeout_max_ms">
  async\_insert\_busy\_timeout\_max\_ms
</h2>

**Aliases**: `async_insert_busy_timeout_ms`

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Milliseconds" default_value="200" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "24.2"},{"label": "200"},{"label": "The minimum value of the asynchronous insert timeout in milliseconds; async_insert_busy_timeout_ms is aliased to async_insert_busy_timeout_max_ms"}]}]} />

Maximum time to wait before dumping collected data per query since the first data appeared.

Cloud default value: `1000` (1s).

<h2 id="async_insert_busy_timeout_min_ms">
  async\_insert\_busy\_timeout\_min\_ms
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Milliseconds" default_value="50" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "24.2"},{"label": "50"},{"label": "The minimum value of the asynchronous insert timeout in milliseconds; it also serves as the initial value, which may be increased later by the adaptive algorithm"}]}]} />

If auto-adjusting is enabled through async\_insert\_use\_adaptive\_busy\_timeout, minimum time to wait before dumping collected data per query since the first data appeared. It also serves as the initial value for the adaptive algorithm

<h2 id="async_insert_deduplicate">
  async\_insert\_deduplicate
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Bool" default_value="0" />

For async INSERT queries in the replicated table, specifies that deduplication of inserting blocks should be performed

  async\_insert\_max\_data\_size
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="UInt64" default_value="10485760" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "24.2"},{"label": "10485760"},{"label": "The previous value appeared to be too small."}]}]} />

Maximum size in bytes of unparsed data collected per query before being inserted

Cloud default value: `104857600` (100 MiB).

<h2 id="async_insert_max_query_number">
  async\_insert\_max\_query\_number
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="UInt64" default_value="450" />

Maximum number of insert queries before being inserted.
Only takes effect if setting [`async_insert_deduplicate`](/docs/reference/settings/session-settings/async-insert#async_insert_deduplicate) is 1.

<h2 id="async_insert_poll_timeout_ms">
  async\_insert\_poll\_timeout\_ms
</h2>

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Milliseconds" default_value="10" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "24.2"},{"label": "10"},{"label": "Timeout in milliseconds for polling data from asynchronous insert queue"}]}]} />

Timeout for polling data from asynchronous insert queue

<h2 id="async_insert_use_adaptive_busy_timeout">

<SettingsInfoBlock type="Bool" default_value="1" />

<VersionHistory rows={[{"id": "row-1","items": [{"label": "24.2"},{"label": "1"},{"label": "Use adaptive asynchronous insert timeout"}]}]} />

If it is set to true, use adaptive busy timeout for asynchronous inserts
