Update dataset access

Update a dataset's access controls.

Code sample

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.

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up authentication for client libraries.

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"

	"cloud.google.com/go/bigquery"
)

// updateDatasetAccessControl demonstrates how the access control policy of a dataset
// can be amended by adding an additional entry corresponding to a specific user identity.
func updateDatasetAccessControl(projectID, datasetID string) error {
	// projectID := "my-project-id"
	// datasetID := "mydataset"
	ctx := context.Background()
	client, err := bigquery.NewClient(ctx, projectID)
	if err != nil {
		return fmt.Errorf("bigquery.NewClient: %w", err)
	}
	defer client.Close()

	ds := client.Dataset(datasetID)
	meta, err := ds.Metadata(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		return err
	}
	// Append a new access control entry to the existing access list.
	update := bigquery.DatasetMetadataToUpdate{
		Access: append(meta.Access, &bigquery.AccessEntry{
			Role:       bigquery.ReaderRole,
			EntityType: bigquery.UserEmailEntity,
			Entity:     "sample.bigquery.dev@gmail.com"},
		),
	}

	// Leverage the ETag for the update to assert there's been no modifications to the
	// dataset since the metadata was originally read.
	if _, err := ds.Update(ctx, update, meta.ETag); err != nil {
		return err
	}
	return nil
