Hi Octavio, this item is currently in the backlog. We will update when it moves up to execution, I cannot share any timelines as of yet.

Any update on this? It is quite convenient to have this feature.

While this implementation is not available, there are other methods available for creating tables with policy tags added to the columns:

• Using the Cloud Console and editing the schema as text to include the policy tags, as shown in [1].

• Using the bq mk command and specifying the policy tags in the schema JSON. To achieve this you could follow [2]

• Using one of the available client libraries and creating an empty table specifying a schema with the policy tags. In Python this could be achieved by specifying the policy_tags parameter in the SchemaField. An example of a schema that specifies a policy tag in a column in [3]. More infromationn on creating a table with schema definition using client libraries (Python, Java, Node.js,...) can be found in [3].

schema = [
       bigquery.SchemaField("full_name", "STRING", mode="REQUIRED"),
       bigquery.SchemaField("age", "INTEGER", mode="REQUIRED", policy_tags=bigquery.PolicyTagList(names=["projects/<project-id>/locations/<location>/taxonomies/<taxonomy-id>/policyTags/<policytag-id>
"])),
   ]

[4] Create an empty table with a schema definition:

Hello, I am the owner of a support case and I want to know if there is an ETA to get this feature implemented.

Thank you in advance!
