    Manage workload assignments

    The BigQuery Reservation API lets you purchase dedicated slots (called commitments ), create pools of slots (called reservations ), and assign projects, folders, and organizations to those reservations.

    Create reservation assignments

    To use the slots that you purchase, you create an assignment which assigns a project, folder, organization, or principal to a slot reservation. You can't assign or allocate a specific number of slots at the assignment level; slots are managed and assigned at the reservation level.

    Assignment logic and criteria

    Projects use the single most specific reservation in the resource hierarchy to which they are assigned. BigQuery uses the following evaluation logic to select the correct reservation:

    1. Resource hierarchy priority:BigQuery evaluates assignments based on the assignee resource ancestry (project > folder > organization). Folder and organization assignments aren't available to standard edition reservations.

    2. User-specific assignments using the principal property ( Preview ):BigQuery reservation assignments support an optional principal property, which lets administrators route queries to specific reservations based on the identity of the user or service account executing the job. Within a specific assignee resource, an assignment with a matching principal takes priority over a generic assignment where the principal is unset.

      The default per-project limit of user-specific assignments is 10. For help changing the default limit, contact bigquery-wlm-feedback@google.com .

    To create an assignment on a reservation, the reservation must fulfill at least one of the following criteria:

    • It is configured with a non-zero amount of assigned baseline slots.

    • It is configured with a non-zero amount of autoscaling slots.

    • It is configured to use idle slots, and there are available idle slots within the project.

    If you attempt to assign a resource to a reservation that doesn't meet at least one of these criteria, you receive the following message: Assignment is pending, your project will be executed as on-demand.

    You can assign a resource to a failover reservation , but the assignment pends in the secondary location.

    Required permissions

    To create a reservation assignment, you need the following Identity and Access Management (IAM) permission:

    Each of the following predefined IAM roles includes this permission:

    • BigQuery Admin
    • BigQuery Resource Admin
    • BigQuery Resource Editor

    For more information about IAM roles in BigQuery, see Predefined roles and permissions .

    Configure project caps and scheduling policy overrides

    To request support or provide feedback for this feature, contact bigquery-wlm-feedback@google.com .

    You can create project caps, which are a type of assignment rule, to configure project-specific overrides for a reservation's default scheduling policies . For example, you can limit the slot consumption and the number of concurrent queries for the project.

    Unlike other kinds of reservation assignments that determine which reservation a project uses, project caps are assignment resources that control only the scheduling behavior for a specific project.

    When you create a project cap, the following limitations apply:

    • The assignee must be a Google Cloud project. Folders and organizations aren't supported.
    • The job type must be unset or explicitly set to JOB_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED .
    • Changes to the max_slots policy value require a new query to start before the update takes effect.

    To create project caps through these scheduling policy assignments, select one of the following options:

    Console

    1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuerypage.

      Go to BigQuery

    2. In the navigation menu, go to Administration  > Workload management.

    3. Click the Assignment rulestab.

    4. Click Create assignment rule.

    5. In the Rule typelist, select Project cap.

    6. In the Select a projectlist, select a project, and then click Continue.

    Terraform

    Use the google_bigquery_reservation_assignment resource.

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

    The following example assigns a project to the reservation named my-reservation :

     resource "google_bigquery_reservation" "default" {
  name              = "my-reservation"
  location          = "us-central1"
  slot_capacity     = 100
  edition           = "ENTERPRISE"
  ignore_idle_slots = false # Use idle slots from other reservations
  concurrency       = 0     # Automatically adjust query concurrency based on available resources
  autoscale {
    max_slots = 200 # Allow the reservation to scale up to 300 slots (slot_capacity + max_slots) if needed
  }
}

data "google_project" "project" {}

resource "google_bigquery_reservation_assignment" "default" {
  assignee    = "projects/${data.google_project.project.project_id}"
  job_type    = "QUERY"
  reservation = google_bigquery_reservation.default.id
}

    To apply your Terraform configuration in a Google Cloud project, complete the steps in the following sections.

    Prepare Cloud Shell

    1. Launch Cloud Shell .

    2. Set the default Google Cloud project where you want to apply your Terraform configurations.

      You only need to run this command once per project, and you can run it in any directory.

      export GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT= PROJECT_ID

      Environment variables are overridden if you set explicit values in the Terraform configuration file.

    Prepare the directory

    Each Terraform configuration file must have its own directory (also called a root module ).

    1. In Cloud Shell , create a directory and a new file within that directory. The filename must have the .tf extension—for example main.tf . In this tutorial, the file is referred to as main.tf . 
      mkdir DIRECTORY 
&& cd DIRECTORY 
&& touch main.tf

    2. If you are following a tutorial, you can copy the sample code in each section or step.

      Copy the sample code into the newly created main.tf .

      Optionally, copy the code from GitHub. This is recommended when the Terraform snippet is part of an end-to-end solution.

    3. Review and modify the sample parameters to apply to your environment.
    4. Save your changes.
    5. Initialize Terraform. You only need to do this once per directory. 
      terraform init

      Optionally, to use the latest Google provider version, include the -upgrade option:

      terraform init -upgrade

    Apply the changes

    1. Review the configuration and verify that the resources that Terraform is going to create or update match your expectations: 
      terraform plan

      Make corrections to the configuration as necessary.

    2. Apply the Terraform configuration by running the following command and entering yes at the prompt: 
      terraform apply

      Wait until Terraform displays the "Apply complete!" message.

    3. Open your Google Cloud project to view the results. In the Google Cloud console, navigate to your resources in the UI to make sure that Terraform has created or updated them.

    When you create a reservation assignment, wait at least 5 minutes before running a query. Otherwise the query might be billed using on-demand pricing.

    To make a project that only uses idle slots , create a reservation with 0 slots assigned to it, then follow the prior steps to assign the project to that reservation.

    User-specific assignments

    You can assign a reservation to a specific principal such as a user or service account within a project, folder, or organization. This is useful for routing specific users' workloads to dedicated reservations.

    When resolving which reservation to use for a job, BigQuery evaluates assignments in the following order:

    1. Evaluate the resource hierarchy, starting with the project, then parent folders, and then the organization.
    2. At each level of the hierarchy, BigQuery first checks for an assignment that matches the specific principal that is running the job.
    3. If no assignment matches the principal at that level, check for a general assignment without a principal at the same level.
    4. If no assignment is found, move to the next level in the hierarchy.

    A project-level assignment without a principal overrides a folder-level assignment with a principal.

    Supported principal formats

    The principal option supports the following IAM v2 principal formats:

    Identity type Principal format
    Users principal://goog/subject/ EMAIL_ADDRESS
    Service accounts principal://iam.googleapis.com/projects/-/serviceAccounts/ EMAIL_ADDRESS
    Workforce identity pool identities principal://iam.googleapis.com/locations/global/workforcePools/ POOL_ID /subject/ SUBJECT_ID
    Workload identity pool identities principal://iam.googleapis.com/projects/ PROJECT_NUMBER /locations/global/workloadIdentityPools/ POOL_ID /subject/ SUBJECT_ID

    Assign a principal to a reservation

    If there are no reservations in the administration project, then you must use the bq command-line tool to view projects assigned to none .

    Override a reservation on a query

    To use a specific reservation in a query, you need the following Identity and Access Management (IAM) permission:

    To assign a query to run in a specific reservation, do one of the following:

    Console

    1. Go to the BigQuerypage.

      Go to BigQuery

    2. Click SQL query.

    3. In the query editor, enter a valid GoogleSQL query.

    4. Click Edit > Query settings.

    5. Clear the Automatic location settingcheckbox, and then select the region or multi-region the reservation is in.

    6. In the Reservationlist, select the reservation you want the query to run in.

    7. Click Save.

    8. Write a query in the editor tab and run it . The query runs in the reservation you specified.

    SQL

    Set the @@reservation system variable in the session to assign the reservation your query runs in:

    1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuerypage.

      Go to BigQuery

    2. In the query editor, enter the following statement:

       SET 
  
 @@reservation 
 = 
 ' RESERVATION 
' 
 ; 
 SELECT 
  
  QUERY 
 
 ;

      Replace the following:

      • RESERVATION : the reservation you want the query to run in.

      • QUERY : the query you want to run.

    3. Click Run.

    For more information about how to run queries, see Run an interactive query .

    For example, the following query uses the SET statement to set the reservation to the test-reservation in the US multi-region, then calls a basic query:

     SET 
  
 @@ 
 reservation 
 = 
 'projects/project1/locations/US/reservations/test-reservation' 
 ; 
 SELECT 
  
 42 
 ;

    bq

    1. In the Google Cloud console, activate Cloud Shell.

      Activate Cloud Shell

      At the bottom of the Google Cloud console, a Cloud Shell session starts and displays a command-line prompt. Cloud Shell is a shell environment with the Google Cloud CLI already installed and with values already set for your current project. It can take a few seconds for the session to initialize.

    2. In Cloud Shell, run the query by using the bq query command with the --reservation_id flag:

      bq  
query  
--use_legacy_sql = 
 false 
  
--reservation_id = 
 RESERVATION_ID 
 ' QUERY 
'

      Replace the following:

      • RESERVATION_ID : the reservation you want to run the query in.

      • QUERY : the SQL statement for the query.

      For example, the following query runs in the test-reservation reservation in the US multi-region:

      bq  
query  
--reservation_id = 
project1.US:test-reservation  
 'SELECT 42;'

    API

    To specify a reservation using the API, insert a new job and populate the query job configuration property. Specify your reservation in the reservation field.

    Assign slots to BigQuery ML workloads

    The following sections provide information on reservation assignment requirements for BigQuery ML models. You can create these reservation assignments by following the procedures in Assign an organization to a reservation or Assign a project or folder to a reservation .

    External models

    The following BigQuery ML model types use external services:

    You can assign reserved slots to queries using these services by creating a reservation assignment that uses the ML_EXTERNAL job type. If no reservation assignment with an ML_EXTERNAL job type is found, the query job runs using on-demand pricing .

    For external model training jobs, the slots in the reservation assignment are used for preprocessing, training, and postprocessing steps. During training, the slots aren't preemptible, but during preprocessing and postprocessing, idle slots can be used.

    Matrix factorization models

    To create a matrix factorization model you must create a reservation that uses the BigQuery Enterprise or Enterprise Plus edition , and then create a reservation assignment that uses the QUERY job type.

    Other model types

    For BigQuery ML models that aren't external models or matrix factorization models, you can assign reserved slots to queries using these services by creating a reservation assignment that uses the QUERY job type. If no reservation assignment with a QUERY job type is found, the query job runs using on-demand pricing .

    Find reservation assignments

    Required permissions

    To search for a reservation assignment for a given project, folder, or organization, you need the following Identity and Access Management (IAM) permission:

    • bigquery.reservationAssignments.list on the administration project.

    Each of the following predefined IAM roles includes this permission:

    • BigQuery Admin
    • BigQuery Resource Admin
    • BigQuery Resource Editor
    • BigQuery Resource Viewer
    • BigQuery User

    For more information about IAM roles in BigQuery, see Predefined roles and permissions .

    Find a project's reservation assignment

    You can find out if your project, folder, or organization is assigned to a reservation by doing the following:

    Console

    1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuery page.

      Go to BigQuery

    2. In the navigation menu, click Workload management.

    3. Click the Reservationstab.

    4. In the table of reservations, expand a reservation to see what resources are assigned to that reservation, or use the Filterfield to filter by resource name.

    SQL

    To find which reservation your project's query jobs are assigned to, query the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ASSIGNMENTS_BY_PROJECT view .

    1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuerypage.

      Go to BigQuery

    2. In the query editor, enter the following statement:

        
 SELECT 
  
 assignment_id 
  
 FROM 
  
` region 
 - 
  LOCATION 
 
` . 
 INFORMATION_SCHEMA 
 . 
 ASSIGNMENTS_BY_PROJECT 
  
 WHERE 
  
 assignee_id 
  
 = 
  
 ' PROJECT_ID 
' 
  
 AND 
  
 job_type 
  
 = 
  
 ' JOB_TYPE 
' 
 ;

      Replace the following:

      • LOCATION : the location of reservations to view
      • ADMIN_PROJECT_ID : the project ID of the administration project that owns the reservation resource
      • PROJECT_ID : the ID of the project to assign to the reservation
      • JOB_TYPE : the type of job to assign to this reservation, such as QUERY , CONTINUOUS , PIPELINE , BACKGROUND , or ML_EXTERNAL

    3. Click Run.

    For more information about how to run queries, see Run an interactive query .

    bq

    To find which reservation your project's query jobs are assigned to, use the bq show command with the --reservation_assignment flag:

    bq show \
    --project_id= ADMIN_PROJECT_ID 
\
    --location= LOCATION 
\
    --reservation_assignment \
    --job_type= JOB_TYPE 
\
    --assignee_id= PROJECT_ID 
\
    --assignee_type=PROJECT

    To find a user-specific assignment, include the --principal flag:

    bq show \
    --project_id= ADMIN_PROJECT_ID 
\
    --location= LOCATION 
\
    --reservation_assignment \
    --job_type= JOB_TYPE 
\
    --assignee_id= PROJECT_ID 
\
    --assignee_type=PROJECT \
    --principal= PRINCIPAL

    Replace the following:

    • ADMIN_PROJECT_ID : the ID of the project that owns the reservation resource
    • LOCATION : the location of reservations to view
    • JOB_TYPE : the type of job to assign to this reservation, such as QUERY , CONTINUOUS , PIPELINE , BACKGROUND , or ML_EXTERNAL
    • PROJECT_ID : the ID of the project
    • PRINCIPAL : the principal identifier, for example, principal://goog/subject/ EMAIL_ADDRESS

    To view active user-specific assignment rules, check the principal column in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ASSIGNMENTS view or execute bq ls --reservation_assignment . Additionally, you can verify which reservation executed a specific job by querying the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.JOBS view. When using the bq show --reservation_assignment command, you can include the optional --principal flag to filter for a specific user assignment.

    Update reservation assignments

    Move an assignment to a different reservation

    You can move an assignment from one reservation to another reservation.

    To move a reservation assignment, you need the following Identity and Access Management (IAM) permissions on the administration project and the assignee.

    • bigquery.reservationAssignments.delete

    Each of the following predefined IAM roles includes these permissions:

    • BigQuery Admin
    • BigQuery Resource Admin
    • BigQuery Resource Editor

    For more information about IAM roles in BigQuery, see Predefined roles and permissions .

    To move an assignment, use the bq update command:

    bq update \
    --project_id= ADMIN_PROJECT_ID 
\
    --location= LOCATION 
\
    --reservation_assignment \
    --destination_reservation_id= DESTINATION_RESERVATION 
\ ADMIN_PROJECT_ID
