A)
B)
C)
D)
PARTITION BY store_id groups the calculation by each store.
ORDER BY date orders the rows correctly for the rolling average.
ROWS BETWEEN 6 PRECEDING AND CURRENT ROW ensures the 7-day moving average.You are designing an application that will interact with several BigQuery datasets. You need to grant the application’s service account permissions that allow it to query and update tables within the datasets, and list all datasets in a project within your application. You want to follow the principle of least privilege. Which pre-defined IAM role(s) should you apply to the service account?
