How to get dataset information via the Python API
I'm trying to get dataset information via the Python client libraries. In the BigQuery UI I can see the created date, data location etc are set, but when I try to get it via the API, it's just returning None
. In the documentation, it says "(None until set from the server)", but if I can see it on the UI, I assumed (presumably wrongly) that it was set.
Here's my code, what am I doing wrong?
dataset_ref = client.dataset('myDatasetName')
dataset_info = bigquery.dataset.Dataset(dataset_ref)
print(dataset_info.created)
python google-bigquery

You were almost there.
dataset_ref = client.dataset('myDatasetName')
dataset_info = client.get_dataset(dataset_ref)
print(dataset_info.created)
Awesome, thanks!
