zarr needs a filter that can encode and pack the strings into a single buffer, except in the special case where the data are being stored in-memory

@alimanfoo: the following also seems to works with directory store python values = np.array([b'ab', b'cdef', np.nan], dtype=object) zgs = zarr.open_group(store='zarr_directory') zgs.create('x', shape=values.shape, dtype=values.dtype) zgs.x[:] = values

This seems to contradict your statement above. What am I missing?
