------------------------------------
Fixed as part of #2052.
> Cannot set session options using REST API / Web UI
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DRILL-7604
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-7604
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Web Server
> Affects Versions: 1.17.0
> Reporter: Dobes Vandermeer
> Assignee: Paul Rogers
> Priority: Minor
>
> Some commands are configured using session options that you set using the
> `SET` command. However, the `SET` command is not useful in the Web UI and
> REST API because the options you set are not preserved in the next request.
> For example, when using CREATE TABLE AS you must `SET store.format csv` to
> set the output format to comma-separated value, but this is not possible via
> the REST API.
> I propose that the API be updated to support options that are normally
> provided using SET:
> # The JSON API accepts an object "options" whose keys are options and values
> are option values. The values should have an appropriate type for the given
> option, e.g. JSON boolean if the option type is boolean
> # The form-based API used by the Web UI scans any provided form fields that
> match a valid session option and sets those options, parsing strings
> according to the type of option
>
