Build 24.0.9175

Miscellaneous

This section provides a complete list of the Miscellaneous properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.


PropertyDescription
StorageTimeoutHow long a Storage API connection may remain active before the provider reconnects.
EmptyArraysAsNullWhether empty arrays are represented as 'null' or as '[]'.
HidePartitionColumnsWhether partition tables will show the columns _PARTITIONDATE and _PARTITIONTIME.
AllowAggregateParametersAllows raw aggregates to be used in parameters when QueryPassthrough is enabled.
ApplicationNameAn application name in the form application/version. For example, AcmeReporting/1.0.
AuditLimitThe maximum number of rows which will be stored within an audit table.
AuditModeWhat provider actions should be recorded to audit tables.
AWSWorkloadIdentityConfigConfiguration properties to provide when using Workload Identity Federation via AWS.
BigQueryOptionsA comma separated list of Google BigQuery options.
ConnectionLifeTimeSpecifies the maximum lifetime of a connection in seconds. When the specified time elapses, the provider closes the connection. Set to 0 or leave empty for no time limit.
GenerateSchemaFilesIndicates the user preference as to when schemas should be generated and saved.
MaximumBillingTierThe MaximumBillingTier is a positive integer that serves as a multiplier of the basic price per TB. For example, if you set MaximumBillingTier to 2, the maximum cost for that query will be 2x basic price per TB.
MaximumBytesBilledLimits how many bytes BigQuery will allow a job to consume before it is cancelled.
MaxRowsSpecifies the maximum rows returned for queries without aggregation or GROUP BY.
OtherSpecifies additional hidden properties for specific use cases. These are not required for typical provider functionality. Use a semicolon-separated list to define multiple properties.
PoolIdleTimeoutSpecifies the maximum idle time, in seconds, that a connection can remain in the pool before being closed.
PoolMaxSizeSpecifies the maximum number of connections allowed in the connection pool. The default value is 100. Set to 0 or a negative value to disable pooling.
PoolMinSizeSpecifies the minimum number of connections maintained in the connection pool. The default value is 1.
PoolWaitTimeSpecifies the maximum number of seconds a connection request waits for an available connection in the pool. If the wait exceeds this time, an error is returned. The default is 60 seconds.
PseudoColumnsSpecifies the pseudocolumns to expose as table columns. Use the format 'TableName=ColumnName;TableName=ColumnName'. The default is an empty string, which disables this property.
QueryPassthroughThis option passes the query to the Google BigQuery server as is.
ReadonlyToggles read-only access to Google BigQuery from the provider.
RTKSpecifies the runtime key for licensing the provider. If unset or invalid, the provider defaults to the standard licensing method. Use this property only in environments where the standard licensing method is unsupported or requires a runtime key.
SupportCaseSensitiveTablesBy default, the provider treats table names as case-insensitive, so if multiple tables have the same name but different casing, only one will be reported in the metadata.
TableSamplePercentThis determines what percent of a table is sampled with the TABLESAMPLE operator.
TimeoutThe value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.
UseConnectionPoolingEnables the connection pooling feature, which allows the provider to reuse existing connections instead of creating new ones for each request.
UserDefinedViewsSpecifies a filepath to a JSON configuration file defining custom views. The provider automatically detects and uses the views specified in this file.
WorkloadPoolIdThe ID of your Workload Identity Federation pool.
WorkloadProjectIdThe ID of the Google Cloud project that hosts your Workload Identity Federation pool.
WorkloadProviderIdThe ID of your Workload Identity Federation pool provider.
