hostPort: BigQuery APIs URL. By default the API URL is bigquery.googleapis.com you can modify this if you have custom implementation of BigQuery.

credentials: You can authenticate with your bigquery instance using either GCP Credentials Path where you can specify the file path of the service account key or you can pass the values directly by choosing the GCP Credentials Values from the service account key file.

You can checkout this documentation on how to create the service account keys and download it.

gcpConfig:

1. Passing the raw credential values provided by BigQuery. This requires us to provide the following information, all provided by BigQuery:

• type: Credentials Type is the type of the account, for a service account the value of this field is service_account. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the type key in the service account key file.
• projectId: A project ID is a unique string used to differentiate your project from all others in Google Cloud. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the project_id key in the service account key file. You can also pass multiple project id to ingest metadata from different BigQuery projects into one service.
• privateKeyId: This is a unique identifier for the private key associated with the service account. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the private_key_id key in the service account file.
• privateKey: This is the private key associated with the service account that is used to authenticate and authorize access to BigQuery. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the private_key key in the service account file.
• clientEmail: This is the email address associated with the service account. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the client_email key in the service account key file.
• clientId: This is a unique identifier for the service account. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the client_id key in the service account key file.
• authUri: This is the URI for the authorization server. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the auth_uri key in the service account key file. The default value to Auth URI is https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth.
• tokenUri: The Google Cloud Token URI is a specific endpoint used to obtain an OAuth 2.0 access token from the Google Cloud IAM service. This token allows you to authenticate and access various Google Cloud resources and APIs that require authorization. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the token_uri key in the service account credentials file. Default Value to Token URI is https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token.
• authProviderX509CertUrl: This is the URL of the certificate that verifies the authenticity of the authorization server. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the auth_provider_x509_cert_url key in the service account key file. The Default value for Auth Provider X509Cert URL is https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs
• clientX509CertUrl: This is the URL of the certificate that verifies the authenticity of the service account. To fetch this key, look for the value associated with the client_x509_cert_url key in the service account key file.

2. Passing a local file path that contains the credentials:

• gcpCredentialsPath

Taxonomy Project ID (Optional): Bigquery uses taxonomies to create hierarchical groups of policy tags. To apply access controls to BigQuery columns, tag the columns with policy tags. Learn more about how yo can create policy tags and set up column-level access control here

If you have attached policy tags to the columns of table available in Bigquery, then OpenMetadata will fetch those tags and attach it to the respective columns.

In this field you need to specify the id of project in which the taxonomy was created.

Taxonomy Location (Optional): Bigquery uses taxonomies to create hierarchical groups of policy tags. To apply access controls to BigQuery columns, tag the columns with policy tags. Learn more about how yo can create policy tags and set up column-level access control here

If you have attached policy tags to the columns of table available in Bigquery, then OpenMetadata will fetch those tags and attach it to the respective columns.

In this field you need to specify the location/region in which the taxonomy was created.

Usage Location (Optional): Location used to query INFORMATION_SCHEMA.JOBS_BY_PROJECT to fetch usage data. You can pass multi-regions, such as us or eu, or your specific region such as us-east1. Australia and Asia multi-regions are not yet supported.

• If you prefer to pass the credentials file, you can do so as follows:

• If you want to use ADC authentication for BigQuery you can just leave the GCP credentials empty. This is why they are not marked as required.

The sourceConfig is defined here:

markDeletedTables: To flag tables as soft-deleted if they are not present anymore in the source system.

markDeletedStoredProcedures: Optional configuration to soft delete stored procedures in OpenMetadata if the source stored procedures are deleted. Also, if the stored procedures is deleted, all the associated entities like lineage, etc., with that stored procedures will be deleted.

includeTables: true or false, to ingest table data. Default is true.

includeViews: true or false, to ingest views definitions.

includeTags: Optional configuration to toggle the tags ingestion.

includeOwners: Set the 'Include Owners' toggle to control whether to include owners to the ingested entity if the owner email matches with a user stored in the OM server as part of metadata ingestion. If the ingested entity already exists and has an owner, the owner will not be overwritten.

includeStoredProcedures: Optional configuration to toggle the Stored Procedures ingestion.

includeDDL: Optional configuration to toggle the DDL Statements ingestion.

queryLogDuration: Configuration to tune how far we want to look back in query logs to process Stored Procedures results.

queryParsingTimeoutLimit: Configuration to set the timeout for parsing the query in seconds.

useFqnForFiltering: Regex will be applied on fully qualified name (e.g service_name.db_name.schema_name.table_name) instead of raw name (e.g. table_name).

databaseFilterPattern, schemaFilterPattern, tableFilterPattern: Note that the filter supports regex as include or exclude. You can find examples here

threads (beta): The number of threads to use when extracting the metadata using multithreading. Please take a look here before configuring this.

incremental (beta): Incremental Extraction configuration. Currently implemented for:

• BigQuery
• Redshift
• Snowflake

To send the metadata to OpenMetadata, it needs to be specified as type: metadata-rest.

The main property here is the openMetadataServerConfig, where you can define the host and security provider of your OpenMetadata installation.

Logger Level

You can specify the loggerLevel depending on your needs. If you are trying to troubleshoot an ingestion, running with DEBUG will give you far more traces for identifying issues.

JWT Token

JWT tokens will allow your clients to authenticate against the OpenMetadata server. To enable JWT Tokens, you will get more details here.

You can refer to the JWT Troubleshooting section link for any issues in your JWT configuration.

Store Service Connection

If set to true (default), we will store the sensitive information either encrypted via the Fernet Key in the database or externally, if you have configured any Secrets Manager.

If set to false, the service will be created, but the service connection information will only be used by the Ingestion Framework at runtime, and won't be sent to the OpenMetadata server.

SSL Configuration

If you have added SSL to the OpenMetadata server, then you will need to handle the certificates when running the ingestion too. You can either set verifySSL to ignore, or have it as validate, which will require you to set the sslConfig.caCertificate with a local path where your ingestion runs that points to the server certificate file.

Find more information on how to troubleshoot SSL issues here.

Connection Options (Optional): Enter the details for any additional connection options that can be sent to database during the connection. These details must be added as Key-Value pairs.

Connection Arguments (Optional): Enter the details for any additional connection arguments such as security or protocol configs that can be sent to database during the connection. These details must be added as Key-Value pairs.

• In case you are using Single-Sign-On (SSO) for authentication, add the authenticator details in the Connection Arguments as a Key-Value pair as follows: "authenticator" : "sso_login_url"
