ARRAY(subquery)

Description

The ARRAY function returns an ARRAY with one element for each row in a subquery.

If subquery produces a SQL table, the table must have exactly one column. Each element in the output ARRAY is the value of the single column of a row in the table.

If subquery produces a value table, then each element in the output ARRAY is the entire corresponding row of the value table.

Constraints

Subqueries are unordered, so the elements of the output ARRAY aren't guaranteed to preserve any order in the source table for the subquery. However, if the subquery includes an ORDER BY clause, the ARRAY function will return an ARRAY that honors that clause.
If the subquery returns more than one column, the ARRAY function returns an error.
If the subquery returns an ARRAY typed column or ARRAY typed rows, the ARRAY function returns an error that GoogleSQL doesn't support ARRAYs with elements of type ARRAY.
If the subquery returns zero rows, the ARRAY function returns an empty ARRAY. It never returns a NULL ARRAY.

Return type

ARRAY

Examples

SELECT ARRAY
  (SELECT 1 UNION ALL
   SELECT 2 UNION ALL
   SELECT 3) AS new_array;

/*-----------*
 | new_array |
 +-----------+
 | [1, 2, 3] |
 *-----------*/

To construct an ARRAY from a subquery that contains multiple columns, change the subquery to use SELECT AS STRUCT. Now the ARRAY function will return an ARRAY of STRUCTs. The ARRAY will contain one STRUCT for each row in the subquery, and each of these STRUCTs will contain a field for each column in that row.

SELECT
  ARRAY
    (SELECT AS STRUCT 1, 2, 3
     UNION ALL SELECT AS STRUCT 4, 5, 6) AS new_array;

/*------------------------*
 | new_array              |
 +------------------------+
 | [{1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6}] |
 *------------------------*/

Similarly, to construct an ARRAY from a subquery that contains one or more ARRAYs, change the subquery to use SELECT AS STRUCT.

SELECT ARRAY
  (SELECT AS STRUCT [1, 2, 3] UNION ALL
   SELECT AS STRUCT [4, 5, 6]) AS new_array;

/*----------------------------*
 | new_array                  |
 +----------------------------+
 | [{[1, 2, 3]}, {[4, 5, 6]}] |
 *----------------------------*/

ARRAY_CONCAT

ARRAY_CONCAT(array_expression[, ...])

Description

Concatenates one or more arrays with the same element type into a single array.

The function returns NULL if any input argument is NULL.

Note: You can also use the || concatenation operator to concatenate arrays.

Return type

ARRAY

Examples

SELECT ARRAY_CONCAT([1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]) as count_to_six;

/*--------------------------------------------------*
 | count_to_six                                     |
 +--------------------------------------------------+
 | [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]                               |

ARRAY_SLICE

Preview

Note: To provide feedback or request support for this feature, send an email to bigquery-sql-preview-support@googlegroups.com.

ARRAY_SLICE(array_to_slice, start_offset, end_offset)

Description

Returns an array containing zero or more consecutive elements from the input array.

array_to_slice: The array that contains the elements you want to slice.
start_offset: The inclusive starting offset.
end_offset: The inclusive ending offset.

An offset can be positive or negative. A positive offset starts from the beginning of the input array and is 0-based. A negative offset starts from the end of the input array. Out-of-bounds offsets are supported. Here are some examples:

Input offset Final offset in array Notes 0 ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] The final offset is 0. 3 ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] The final offset is 3. 5 ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] Because the input offset is out of bounds, the final offset is 3 (array length - 1). -1 ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] Because a negative offset is used, the offset starts at the end of the array. The final offset is 3 (array length - 1). -2 ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] Because a negative offset is used, the offset starts at the end of the array. The final offset is 2 (array length - 2). -4 ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] Because a negative offset is used, the offset starts at the end of the array. The final offset is 0 (array length - 4). -5 ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] Because the offset is negative and out of bounds, the final offset is 0 (array length - array length).

Additional details:

The input array can contain NULL elements. NULL elements are included in the resulting array.
Returns NULL if array_to_slice, start_offset, or end_offset is NULL.
Returns an empty array if array_to_slice is empty.
Returns an empty array if the position of the start_offset in the array is after the position of the end_offset.

/*--------------------------*
 | timestamp_array          |
 +--------------------------+
 | [2016-10-05 00:00:00+00] |
 *--------------------------*/

The following example returns an empty ARRAY, because start_timestamp is later than end_timestamp.

SELECT GENERATE_TIMESTAMP_ARRAY('2016-10-06 00:00:00', '2016-10-05 00:00:00',
                                INTERVAL 1 HOUR) AS timestamp_array;

/*-----------------*
 | timestamp_array |
 +-----------------+
 | []              |
 *-----------------*/

The following example returns a null ARRAY, because one of the inputs is NULL.

SELECT GENERATE_TIMESTAMP_ARRAY('2016-10-05 00:00:00', NULL, INTERVAL 1 HOUR)
  AS timestamp_array;

/*-----------------*
 | timestamp_array |
 +-----------------+
 | NULL            |
 *-----------------*/

The following example generates ARRAYs of TIMESTAMPs from columns containing values for start_timestamp and end_timestamp.

SELECT GENERATE_TIMESTAMP_ARRAY(start_timestamp, end_timestamp, INTERVAL 1 HOUR)
  AS timestamp_array
FROM
  (SELECT
    TIMESTAMP '2016-10-05 00:00:00' AS start_timestamp,
