[jira] [Commented] (AIRFLOW-1943) Add feature to create External BigQuery Table

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1943?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16303396#comment-16303396 ] 

David Sabater commented on AIRFLOW-1943:
----------------------------------------

This can probably be implemented by reusing the current BigQuery Operator as the BigQuery hook accepts input parameters for the *configuration.query.tableDefinitions* property already, which are key to create external tables as per Google documentation:
1. The sourceUris must be fully-qualified, in the format gs://[BUCKET]/[OBJECT] using *configuration.query.tableDefinitions.(key).sourceUris[]*
2. Specify the rest of external data source properties by setting the *configuration.query.tableDefinitions* property

> Currently using the BigQuery operator and the bq hook we can just create a materialized (internal) BigQuery Table but there is no code to create an external BQ table.
