How can I change a project in BigQuery

Question

When setting up the Big-Query command-line tool, I was asked to set up a default project. However, now I have many projects, and I can’t find how to switch from one project to another. Does anyone know how to navigate projects using the command line? Thanks in advance!

You have two ways to do this:

• Specify the --project_id global flag in bq . Example: bq ls -j --project_id <PROJECT>
• Change the default project by issuing gcloud config set project <PROJECT>
