Code sample

Java

Before trying this sample, follow the Java setup instructions in the BigQuery quickstart using client libraries. For more information, see the BigQuery Java API reference documentation.

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up authentication for client libraries.

GoogleCredentials credentials =
    ServiceAccountCredentials.getApplicationDefault()
        .createScoped(
            ImmutableSet.of(
                "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/bigquery",
                "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive"));

// Initialize client that will be used to send requests. This client only needs to be created
// once, and can be reused for multiple requests.
BigQuery bigquery =
    BigQueryOptions.newBuilder().setCredentials(credentials).build().getService();

Python

Before trying this sample, follow the Python setup instructions in the BigQuery quickstart using client libraries. For more information, see the BigQuery Python API reference documentation.

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up authentication for client libraries.

# Create credentials with Drive & BigQuery API scopes.
# Both APIs must be enabled for your project before running this code.
#
# If you are using credentials from gcloud, you must authorize the
# application first with the following command:
#
# gcloud auth application-default login \
#   --scopes=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive,https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
credentials, project = google.auth.default(
    scopes=[
        "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive",
        "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform",
    ]
)

# Construct a BigQuery client object.
client = bigquery.Client(credentials=credentials, project=project)
