Scalar value

Data type

Description

STRING

A string of maximum length 1024 bytes.

INTEGER

DOUBLE

A floating point number with range from –10^100 to 10^100, or Nan with IEEE 754 double precision.

BOOLEAN

true or false.

TIMESTAMP

ISO-8601 compliant timestamps:

  • 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss[.SSS]'

  • TIMESTAMP 'yyyy-MM-dd[\s|T]HH:mm:ss[.SSS][+HH:mm|'Z']'

  • 'yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss[.SSS][+HH:mm|'Z']'

  • 'yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss+[hh:mm]'
Note

Null: A boolean true indicating a lack of defined data.

TIMESTAMP value examples:

TIMESTAMP '2025-12-21 23:59:59.999Z'
TIMESTAMP '2025-12-21 23:59:59+23:59'
'2025-12-21 23:59:59'
'2025-12-21T23:59:59.123+11:11'
Note

The double precision data is not exact. Some values are not converted exactly, and will not represent all real numbers due to limited precision. Floating-point data in the query may not be the same value represented internally. The value is rounded if the precision of an input number is too high.
