Tables

Add column to table

Adds a new column to an existing table.

Attributes definition and basetype are allowed (and required) for typed tables created via table definition. The request body shape depends on the table backend: SnowflakeAddColumnToTableRequest / BigqueryAddColumnToTableRequest for typed tables, ColumnCreateRequest for untyped tables.

Initial response returns job details JobResponse. The result of the asynchronous job can be fetched via /v2/storage/jobs/{id}. When the job completes, final result is ColumnCreateJobResult.

Parameters of job will be TableColumnAddJobParams.
