+\title{Read Arrow IPC stream format}
+\usage{
+read_arrow(file, ...)
+
+read_ipc_stream(file, as_data_frame = TRUE, ...)
+}
+\arguments{
+\item{file}{A character file name or URI, \code{raw} vector, an Arrow input stream,
+or a \code{FileSystem} with path (\code{SubTreeFileSystem}).
+If a file name or URI, an Arrow \link{InputStream} will be opened and
+closed when finished. If an input stream is provided, it will be left
+open.}
+
+\item{...}{extra parameters passed to \code{read_feather()}.}
+
+\item{as_data_frame}{Should the function return a \code{data.frame} (default) or
+an Arrow \link{Table}?}
+}
+\value{
+A \code{data.frame} if \code{as_data_frame} is \code{TRUE} (the default), or an
+Arrow \link{Table} otherwise
+}
+\description{
+Apache Arrow defines two formats for \href{https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#serialization-and-interprocess-communication-ipc}{serializing data for interprocess communication (IPC)}:
+a "stream" format and a "file" format, known as Feather. \code{read_ipc_stream()}
+and \code{\link[=read_feather]{read_feather()}} read those formats, respectively.
+}
+\details{
+\code{read_arrow()}, a wrapper around \code{read_ipc_stream()} and \code{read_feather()},
+is deprecated. You should explicitly choose
+the function that will read the desired IPC format (stream or file) since
+a file or \code{InputStream} may contain either.
+}
+\seealso{
+\code{\link[=read_feather]{read_feather()}} for writing IPC files. \link{RecordBatchReader} for a
+lower-level interface.
