I was hoping to use basic SQL Create Table syntax within Google BigQuery to create a table based on columns in 2 existing tables already in BQ. The Google SQL dialect reference does not show a CREATE. All of the documentation seems to imply that I need to know how to code.
Is there any syntax or way to do a
CREATE TABLE XYZ AS
SELECT ABC.123, DFG.234
from ABC, DFG
?
You cannot do it entirely through a SQL statement.
However, the UI does allow you to save results to a table (max result size is 64MB compressed. The API and command line clients have the same capabilities.
