Attribute
AccessToken (AT)
Purpose
Specifies the access token required to authenticate to a Google BigQuery
instance when OAuth 2.0 is enabled (AuthenticationMethod=oauth2.0).
The access token acts as a session ID for the connection. See "Generating access token and refresh token" to know how to obtain an access token.
Valid Values
string
where:
- string
- is the access token you have obtained to authenticate to Google BigQuery.
Notes
- If a value for the Access Token option is not specified, the driver uses the value of the Refresh Token option to make a connection.
- If both Access Token and Refresh Token values are not specified, the driver cannot make a successful connection.
- If both AccessToken and RefreshToken values are specified, the driver uses the AccessToken value. However, if the AccessToken value expires, it uses the RefreshToken value to generate a new AccessToken value.
