Create views

This document describes how to create views in BigQuery.

You can create a view in BigQuery in the following ways:

Using the Cloud Console.
Using the bq command-line tool's bq mk command.
Calling the tables.insert API method.
Using the client libraries.
Submitting a CREATE VIEW data definition language (DDL) statement.

View limitations

BigQuery views are subject to the following limitations:

Views are read-only. You cannot run DML (insert, update, delete) queries against a view.
The dataset that contains your view and the dataset that contains the tables referenced by the view must be in the same location.
You cannot run a BigQuery job that exports data from a view.
You cannot use the TableDataList JSON API method to retrieve data from a view. For more information, see Tabledata: list.
You cannot mix standard SQL and legacy SQL queries when using views. A standard SQL query cannot reference a view defined using legacy SQL syntax.
You cannot reference query parameters in views.
The schemas of the underlying tables are stored with the view when the view is created. If columns are added, deleted, or modified after the view is created, then the reported schema is inaccurate until the view is updated. Even though the reported schema may be inaccurate, all submitted queries produce accurate results.
You cannot automatically update a legacy SQL view to standard SQL syntax. To modify the query used to define a view, you can use the following:
- The Edit query option in the Cloud Console
- The bq update --view command in the bq command-line tool
- The BigQuery Client libraries
- The update or patch API methods.
You cannot include a temporary user-defined function or a temporary table in the SQL query that defines a view.
You cannot reference a view in a wildcard table query.

For information about quotas and limits that apply to views, see View limits.

Before you begin

Grant Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles that give users the necessary permissions to perform each task in this document.

Required permissions

Views are treated as table resources in BigQuery, so creating a view requires the same permissions as creating a table. You must also have permissions to query any tables that are referenced by the view's SQL query.

To create a view, you need the bigquery.tables.create IAM permission.

Each of the following predefined IAM roles includes the permissions that you need in order to create a view:

roles/bigquery.dataEditor
roles/bigquery.dataOwner
roles/bigquery.admin

Additionally, if you have the bigquery.datasets.create permission, you can create views in the datasets that you create. To create a view for data that you don't own, you must have bigquery.jobs.create permission for that table.

Note: To create or update an authorized view, or a view in an authorized dataset, you need additional permissions. For more information, see required permissions for authorized views and required permissions for views in authorized datasets.

For more information on IAM roles and permissions in BigQuery, see Predefined roles and permissions.

View naming

When you create a view in BigQuery, the view name must be unique per dataset. The view name can:

Contain up to 1,024 characters.
Contain Unicode characters in category L (letter), M (mark), N (number), Pc (connector, including underscore), Pd (dash), Zs (space). For more information, see General Category.

For example, the following are all valid view names: view 01, ग्राहक, 00_お客様, étudiant-01.

Some view names and view name prefixes are reserved. If you receive an error saying that your view name or prefix is reserved, then select a different name and try again.

Create a view

You can create a view by composing a SQL query that is used to define the data accessible to the view.

To create a view:

Console

After running a query, click the Save view button above the query results window to save the query as a view.
In the Save view dialog:
- For Project name, select a project to store the view.
- For Dataset name, choose a dataset to store the view. The dataset that contains your view and the dataset that contains the tables referenced by the view must be in the same location.
- For Table name, enter the name of the view.
- Click Save.

Note: When you create a view using Cloud Console, you cannot add a label, description, or expiration time. You can add these optional properties when you create a view using the API or bq command-line tool. After you create a view using the Cloud Console, you can add an expiration, description, and labels. For more information, see Updating views.

SQL

Use the CREATE VIEW statement to create a new view. The following statement creates a view named usa_male_names from the USA names public dataset.

You can run the SQL statement in the Cloud Console. On the BigQuery page, enter the statement into the query editor.

Go to BigQuery

CREATE VIEW mydataset.usa_male_names(name, number) AS SELECT name, number FROM bigquery-public-data.usa_names.usa_1910_current WHERE gender = "M" ORDER BY number DESC

For more information about how to run queries, see Running interactive queries.

bq

Use the bq mk command with the --view flag. For standard SQL queries, add the --use_legacy_sql flag and set it to false. Optional parameters include --expiration, --description, and --label.

If your query references external user-defined function (UDF) resources stored in Cloud Storage or in local files, use the --view_udf_resource flag to specify those resources. The --view_udf_resource flag is not demonstrated here. For more information about using UDFs, see UDFs and the bq command-line tool.

If you are creating a view in a project other than your default project, specify the project ID using the --project_id flag.

Note: The dataset that contains your view and the dataset that contains the tables referenced by the view must be in the same location.bq mk \ --use_legacy_sql=false \ --view_udf_resource=PATH_TO_FILE \ --expiration INTEGER \ --description "DESCRIPTION" \ --label KEY:VALUE \ --view 'QUERY' \ --project_id PROJECT_ID \ DATASET.VIEW

Replace the following:

PATH_TO_FILE is the URI or local file system path to a code file to be loaded and evaluated immediately as a UDF resource used by the view. Repeat the flag to specify multiple files.
INTEGER sets the lifetime (in seconds) for the view. If INTEGER is 0, the view doesn't expire. If you don't include the --expiration flag, BigQuery creates the view with the dataset's default table lifetime.
DESCRIPTION is a description of the view in quotes.
KEY:VALUE is the key-value pair that represents a label. Repeat the --label flag to specify multiple labels.
QUERY is a valid query.
PROJECT_ID is your project ID (if you do not have a default project configured).
DATASET is a dataset in your project.
VIEW is the name of the view that you want to create.

Examples:

Enter the following command to create a view named myview in mydataset in your default project. The expiration time is set to 3600 seconds (1 hour), the description is set to This is my view, and the label is set to organization:development. The query used to create the view queries data from the USA Name Data public dataset.

bq mk \ --use_legacy_sql=false \ --expiration 3600 \ --description "This is my view" \ --label organization:development \ --view \ 'SELECT name, number FROM `bigquery-public-data.usa_names.usa_1910_current` WHERE gender = "M" ORDER BY number DESC' \ mydataset.myview

Enter the following command to create a view named myview in mydataset in myotherproject. The description is set to This is my view, the label is set to organization:development, and the view's expiration is set to the dataset's default table expiration. The query used to create the view queries data from the USA Name Data public dataset.

bq mk \ --use_legacy_sql=false \ --description "This is my view" \ --label organization:development \ --project_id myotherproject \ --view \ 'SELECT name, number FROM `bigquery-public-data.usa_names.usa_1910_current` WHERE gender = "M" ORDER BY number DESC' \ mydataset.myview

After the view is created, you can update the view's expiration, description, and labels. For more information, see Updating views.

API

Call the tables.insert method with a table resource that contains a view property.

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.

After you create the view, you query it like you query a table.
