**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.** I am exporting data from an application using an Arrow schema - the data is then written into a parquet file. Some fields are logically enums, and I would like to export them as the ENUM type in Parquet, but there is currently no way to specify that. **Describe the solution you'd like** In parquet, ENUM is an annotation of a BYTE_ARRAY, similar to STRING. Unlike String, it's parametrized with the allowable values. It sounds like it might be an extension type, as in #5822 . -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
