The query interface will automatically select the backend which contains the channel (e.g., *databuffer* for *Channel_02* and *archiverappliance* for *Channel_04*). In case name clashes exist, the query interface will use following order of priority: *databuffer* and *archiverappliance*.

### Define `responseFormat` ### Response Format
Responses can be formatted as CSV or JSON using the `responseFormat` field. The returned data is JSON-formatted by default. The format of the response can be defined through the field `responseFormat` (values: **JSON**|CSV). Please note that CSV does not support `index` and `extrema` aggregations.
CSV export does not support `index` and `extrema` aggregations.
### Define `compression` ### Response Compression
By default, data is not compressed when transferred from the server to the client. However, compression can be enabled by setting the `compression` attribute to a value other than `none`, i.e. to `gzip` or `deflate`. Responses can be compressed when transferred from the server by setting the field `compression` (values: **none**|gzip|deflate).
If compression is enabled, you have to tell `curl` that the data is compressed so that it is being decompressed automatically. `curl` decompresses the response when the `--compressed` parameter is set. If compression is enabled, you have to tell `curl` that the data is compressed by defining the attribute `--compressed` so that it decompresses the data automatically.
