 NOTE: If any arguments to any of the following functions are [.out]`MISSING` then the result is also [.out]`MISSING` -- that is, no result is returned.
 Similarly, if any of the arguments passed to the functions are `NULL` or are of the wrong type, such as an integer instead of a string, then `NULL` is returned as the result.
 
+[[fn-str-compress,COMPRESS()]]
+== COMPRESS(`input_string`)
+
+=== Description
+
+This function compresses a string using `zlib` compression and encodes the compressed data into `base64` format. 
+It returns a compact, encoded string that can be easily transmitted or stored. 
+
+NOTE: To convert a compressed string back to its original format, use the xref:n1ql:n1ql-language-reference/stringfun.adoc#fn-str-uncompress[UNCOMPRESS()] function. 
+
+=== Arguments
+input_string:: A string or a valid expression that evaluates to a string. 
+
+=== Return Value
+A `base64` encoded string.

+[[fn-str-uncompress,UNCOMPRESS()]]
+== UNCOMPRESS(`input_string`)
+
+=== Description
+
+This function takes a `base64` encoded, compressed string as input and returns the original uncompressed string. 
+
+NOTE: This function is often used together with the xref:n1ql:n1ql-language-reference/stringfun.adoc#fn-str-compress[COMPRESS()] function, which compresses and encodes strings to `base64` format. 
+
+=== Arguments
+
+input_string:: A `base64` encoded string that represents the compressed data. 
+It supports the following formats: 
+
+* `zlib` compressed and `base64` encoded strings.
+* `gzip` compressed and `base64` encoded strings.
+* Execution plan strings stored in the `pln` array of AWR documents that are compressed and `base64` encoded.
+//TODO: Add link to the AWR documentation, when it is ready.  
+
+=== Return Value
+A string that represents the decoded and uncompressed data.
+
+=== Examples
+
+.Example 1: Uncompressing a `base64` encoded string
+====
+.Query
+[source,sqlpp]
