解説

This property sets a billing cap for each job. If the job attempts to process more data than the specified limit, Google BigQuery cancels the job and you are not billed.

By default, there is no cap, and jobs are billed for all bytes processed.

This property only applies when using DestinationTable or when submitting jobs via the InsertJob stored procedure. Standard query jobs do not support byte limits and ignore this setting.

For example, setting MaximumBytesBilled to 1000000000 caps the job at approximately 1 GB of processed data.

Use this property to prevent unexpected billing charges from large queries. It is especially useful in environments where cost control is a priority.
