Chris Riccomini closed AIRFLOW-509. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Done Fix Version/s: Airflow 1.8 > Create operator to delete tables in BigQuery > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: AIRFLOW-509 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-509 > Project: Apache Airflow > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Ilya Rakoshes > Assignee: Ilya Rakoshes > Fix For: Airflow 1.8 > > > Airflow currently has several operators for BigQuery, but none of them are > able to delete tables. The request is to create a new operator that will be > able to do this. > An important application of this is to help refresh views for which the > schema of the underlying tables is subject to change. BigQuery has no > functionality to refresh the schema of a view, so if the underlying table > changes the schema will not have the new data and things like auto-completion > will not work in the UI. By deleting a view and re-creating it, we can force > a schema refresh. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
