JDBC Driver for Google BigQuery

Build 22.0.8462

ShowTableDescriptions

Controls whether table descriptions are returned via the platform metadata APIs and sys_tables / sys_views.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

false

Remarks

By default table descriptions are not shown, since the Google BigQuery API requires an extra request beyond what is usually required for reading tables.

Enabling this option will show table descriptions, but will cost an extra API request for every table when a table list is fetched. This can slow down metadata operations on large datasets.
