bigquery/ERR/2022_002

BigQuery jobs are not failing due to results being larger than the maximum response size

Product: BigQuery
Rule class: ERR - Something that is very likely to be wrong

Description

Query results for SQL queries in BigQuery that generate excessively large results and don’t set a destination table fail with job error “responseTooLarge”

Remediation

Adding a LIMIT clause can sometimes help, or removing the ORDER BY clause. If you want to ensure that large results can return, you can specify a destination table and also set the allowLargeResults option to true if using Legacy SQL.
