You can add csvh here: https://github.com/apache/drill/blob/master/exec/java-exec/src/main/resources/bootstrap-storage-plugins.json Basically, create a new item in the map. Note how the text formats are a subset of the TextFormatConfig class. You can add a new property that tells you to perform header extraction. See the properties here [1] that correspond to the format properties: [1] https://github.com/apache/drill/blob/master/exec/java-exec/src/main/java/org/apache/drill/exec/store/easy/text/TextFormatPlugin.java#L134
