There are two types of TVFs in Spark SQL: a TVF that can be specified in a FROM clause, e.g. range; a TVF that can be specified in SELECT/LATERAL VIEW clauses, e.g. explode.

To create a table function, use theCREATE TABLE FUNCTIONstatement. A table function contains a query that produces a table. The functionreturns the query result. The following table function takes an INT64parameter and uses this value inside a WHERE clause in a query over apublic dataset calledbigquery-public-data.usa_names.usa_1910_current: To fil...
You can call a table function in any context where a table is valid. The followingexample calls the mydataset.names_by_year function in the FROM clause ofa SELECTstatement: The results look like the following: You can join the output from a table function with another table: You can also use a table function in asubquery:
You can authorize table functions as routines.Authorized routines let you share query results with specific users or groupswithout giving them access to the underlying tables that generated the results.For example, an authorized routine can compute an aggregationover data or look up a table value and use that value in a computation.For more informa...
