Thank you for posting this script!

Thanks for posting this! How would you modify this script to use 'Standard SQL' instead of 'Legacy' ?

Edit: I found the answer elsewhere. I simply added .setUseLegacySql(false) after the setTimeoutMs.

How to get header, can anyone please help. I am not getting header though record is ready

@greenido: You used BigQuery.Jobs.getQueryResults directly without setting up the service account credentials. How was it possible? I mean, in order to give access to the Apps Script project to the BigQuery, there must be a service account configuration, right?

you are a star

I had to add Bigquery as extra service in Appscript editor - after adding it will ask you for your credentials to use when accessing Bigquery data.. after that the SQL is results are returned without issues..
I was following the script in this article> https://developers.google.com/apps-script/advanced/bigquery

How to get header, can anyone please help. I am not getting header though record is ready

// Append the headers.
const headers = queryResults.schema.fields.map(function(field) {
return field.name;
});
sheet.appendRow(headers);
