# ImportFamilyRootExcludeFmtCSV

The `ImportFamilyRootExcludeFmtCSV` parameter specifies which KeyView formats not to designate as family roots if family hashing is enabled. For example, if you exclude the PST format (KeyView value 356), when CFS hashes a PST file, it does not consider PST container as the root format. Instead, it searches for a deeper format. In this case, it finds the MAIL format, which is then considered the root of the family.

For a complete list of KeyView formats, refer to the Connector Framework Server Administration Guide.
