gcloud bigtable table creation timestamp granularity

Introduced 2026-10-27 · score 0.93

HOW TO USE IT

When creating a Cloud Bigtable table, set its timestamp precision with `--timestamp-granularity=millis` or `--timestamp-granularity=micros`; use `micros` only on an Enterprise Plus instance.

gcloud bigtable instances tables create <table> --instance=<instance> --column-families=<family> --timestamp-granularity=millis
gcloud bigtable tables create <table> --instance=<instance> --column-families=<family> --timestamp-granularity=micros

WHY THIS HELPS

Create a Cloud Bigtable table with the timestamp precision required by its data.

REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS

  • --timestamp-granularity: Sets table timestamp granularity: `millis` or `micros`.
  • --column-families (required): List of column family names, optionally with garbage collection rules.
  • --instance: Names the Bigtable instance; may be omitted when the table identifier is fully qualified.
  • Prerequisite: `micros` granularity is supported only on Enterprise Plus instances.
  • Supported values are `millis` or `micros`.
  • Microsecond granularity is supported only on Enterprise Plus instances.
