BQ Partitioning by column instead of date

Question

I'm trying to partition my tables in BQ, I've read the documentation and it always points to timePartition. I understand that this may be the default partition, but is it possible to define your table's column/s as the partition?

Any inputs would help. Thanks!

Not as of today. The only available partition type is "DAY"

We expect to provide this ability in the coming months. I will provide another update as we get closer to the launch. – Pavan Edara Jun 30 '16 at 14:03
