Patch BigQuery Table

Tool to update specific fields in an existing BigQuery table using RFC5789 PATCH semantics. Only the fields provided in the request are updated; unspecified fields remain unchanged. Use when you need to modify table metadata like description, friendly name, labels, or expiration time without replacing the entire table resource.

Query

Query Tool runs a SQL query in BigQuery using the REST API. Use proper BigQuery SQL syntax, e.g., SELECT * FROM `project.dataset.table` WHERE column_name = 'value'. Results are returned under data.rows; an empty rows array means no matching data. Large result sets may be returned via remote_file_info instead of inline rows. Verify exact project_id, dataset, table, and column names before running; wrong identifiers trigger invalidQuery or notFound errors.

Search All BigQuery Reservation Assignments

Update BigQuery Connection

Tool to update a specified BigQuery connection using the BigQuery Connection API. Use when you need to modify connection properties such as friendly name, description, or connection-specific settings. For security reasons, credentials are automatically reset if connection properties are included in the update mask.

Update BigQuery Dataset

Tool to update information in an existing BigQuery dataset using the PUT method. The update method replaces the entire dataset resource, whereas the patch method only replaces fields that are provided in the submitted dataset resource. Use when you need to modify dataset properties like description, access controls, or default settings.

Update BigQuery Routine

Tool to update an existing BigQuery routine (function or stored procedure). This replaces the entire routine resource with the provided definition. Use when modifying routine logic, arguments, return types, or other configuration. Ensure all required fields are provided as this is a full replacement operation.

Update BigQuery Table

Tool to update an existing BigQuery table. The update method replaces the entire Table resource, whereas the patch method only replaces fields that are provided. Use when you need to modify table properties like schema, description, labels, partitioning, or clustering configuration.
