解説

When this property is set to true, the connector retrieves and includes table descriptions defined in Google BigQuery metadata. These descriptions are returned through the platform’s metadata APIs and system views.

By default, this property is set to false to avoid the additional overhead required to fetch descriptions. Retrieving table descriptions requires a separate API request per table, which can significantly increase metadata query time in projects with many tables.

Enable this property if your application or users require access to descriptive metadata about tables. Disable it for faster metadata browsing, especially in large environments.
