Go

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

	"context"
	"fmt"

	"cloud.google.com/go/bigquery"
)

// and protecting the data with a customer-managed encryption key.
func importJSONWithCMEK(projectID, datasetID, tableID string) error {
	// projectID := "my-project-id"
	// datasetID := "mydataset"
	// tableID := "mytable"
	ctx := context.Background()
	client, err := bigquery.NewClient(ctx, projectID)
	if err != nil {
		return fmt.Errorf("bigquery.NewClient: %w", err)
	}
	defer client.Close()

	gcsRef.SourceFormat = bigquery.JSON
