title: Azure EventHub Event Format
body: <p>All,</p>
  
  <p>I set up an <strong>EventHub</strong> Namespace and EventHub and was able to successfully send and receive events to it using Python scripts. I was also able to enable the Capture feature and store the events in Azure Blob Storage in Avro format. </p>
  
  <p>I wanted to know more about EventHubs and would be great if someone points me in the right direction:</p>
  
  <p><em>[1] During Capture, can the file format be changed to say for example csv or json format so that the files get created in csv/json format? Or is Avro the only one supported?</em></p>
  
  <p><em>[2] When the Event is in EventHub itself before it gets aged out what is the format of the event - is it json?</em></p>
  
  <p><em>[3] When the Event data is stored in Azure Blob Storage (in avro format) how do I know what is the structure of the data so that I can create an appropriate schema which I can then use in Azure Data Explorer definition to load data into Kutso database.</em></p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
