For security purposes, I'd like to be able to audit who is running what kinds of queries within a certain project. Is this possible?
Using bq ls -j
from the command line gives some info; bg show -j
gives a little more. But neither show the user or the query itself.
In the CLI, you can run bq ls -j -a
to retrieve jobs for all users in a project.
Then you can run for each job id a bq show -j <job_id>
and in order to have more details you will choose to use the json response:
bq show --format=prettyjson -j job_joQEqPwOiOoBlOhDBEgKxQAlKJQ
this returns the following format which have your query, your user and bytesprocessed etc...
{
"configuration": {
"dryRun": false,
"query": {
"createDisposition": "CREATE_IF_NEEDED",
"destinationTable": {
"datasetId": "",
"projectId": "",
"tableId": ""
},
"query": "",
"writeDisposition": "WRITE_TRUNCATE"
}
},
"etag": "",
"id": "",
"jobReference": {
"jobId": "",
"projectId": ""
},
"kind": "bigquery#job",
"selfLink": "",
"statistics": {
"creationTime": "1435006022346",
"endTime": "1435006144730",
"query": {
"cacheHit": false,
"totalBytesProcessed": "105922683030"
},
"startTime": "1435006023171",
"totalBytesProcessed": "105922683030"
},
"status": {
"state": "DONE"
},
"user_email": ""
}
Using the API you need to pass allUsers property to list jobs from all users https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/v2/jobs/list#allUsers
