Usage Note 65884: The ability to connect to a Google BigQuery database via proxy has been added to the SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Google BigQuery

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

The ability to connect to a Google BigQuery database via a proxy is available with this hot fix. You can use the newly added option, PROXY=, with the following methods of connection to the Google BigQuery database:

LIBNAME GBQ BIGQUERY PROXY="<proxy_url>"...;

PROC SQL; CONNECT TO BIGQUERY(PROXY="<proxy_url>"...);

PROC FEDSQL NOLIB CONN=(DRIVER=FEDSQL;CONOPTS=(DRIVER=BIGQUERY;PROXY="<proxy_url>";...));

CASLIB GBQ DATASOURCE=(srctype="bigquery", PROXY="<proxy_url>",...);

Currently, after you make a connection to a BigQuery database (once the gbqgo.so library has been loaded), you cannot alter the PROXY= option without restarting the SAS session. This behavior includes when you add the PROXY= option after you attempted a prior connection to the BigQuery database without the option.
