[jira] [Created] (BEAM-1716) Using Instant type in TableRow should map to the right output format for TIMESTAMP in BigQuery

-------------------------------------

             Summary: Using Instant type in TableRow should map to the right output format for TIMESTAMP in BigQuery
                 Key: BEAM-1716
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-1716
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: sdk-java-gcp
    Affects Versions: 0.5.0
            Reporter: Tobias Feldhaus
            Assignee: Daniel Halperin
             Fix For: First stable release


When using an Instant type in a TableRow, and a TIMESTAMP field in the TableFieldSchema, one has to convert the Instant via 

instant.getMillis() / 1000

to match the BigQuery TIMESTAMP that is "A positive or negative decimal number. A positive number specifies the number of seconds since the epoch".

In the Dataflow 1.9 SDK this conversion is done automatically.
