Schema for Gmail logs in BigQuery

When you load data into a table or create an empty table in BigQuery, you must specify a schema. The schema in this article defines and describes the fields associated with Gmail logs in BigQuery.

Learn how to specify and modify schemas in BigQuery.

To streamline your BigQuery tasks and let you manage all your BigQuery data in one place, we’re merging Gmail logs in BigQuery with Workspace logs and reports in BigQuery, starting in February 2023. You’ll manage BigQuery logs and reports for all your Workspace services in the same place in your Google Admin console. We recommend that you migrate your Gmail BigQuery views, queries, and scripts to Workspace logs and reports in BigQuery as soon as possible. For detailed steps, go to Migrate Gmail logs in BigQuery to Workspace logs in BigQuery.

Schema updates

We occasionally update the schema in this article. When new fields are added to the template table, the next daily table generated from the template has the new fields. If you want to query new fields, query daily tables generated after the template was updated.

Type	INTEGER	Mode	REQUIRED
Description	Time when this event started, in the form of a UNIX timestamp, in microseconds

message_info

Type	RECORD	Mode	NULLABLE
Description	General information about the message

message_info.action_type

Type

INTEGER

Mode

NULLABLE

Description

The action this event represents.

Value	Description
1	Message received by inbound SMTP server.
2	Message accepted by Gmail and prepared for delivery. This step usually follows 1, or is the first step if you send from Gmail. For incoming messages, policies with reject dispositions are usually evaluated here. For example, an attachment compliance policy that rejects incoming messages. See also 68.
3	Message was handled by Gmail. For example, delivered to a Gmail mailbox or sent to another server. This step usually follows 2. Policies with dispositions other than reject are evaluated here. For example, an attachment compliance policy that strips attachments based on file type or other criteria.
10	Message sent out by outbound SMTP server.
14	A temporary error occurred when Gmail tried to deliver the message, and the message has been scheduled for retry. This is usually caused by external or internal servers that are temporarily unavailable. Retry later. For example, Gmail tried to deliver the message to an external SMTP server, but received temporary error.
18	Message could not be delivered and bounced. Sometimes you can find out what happened by reading message_info.description. Common reasons include: The recipient server didn’t accept the request. The message could not be delivered due to too many temporary errors (see 14). The message was rejected due to a deferred policy evaluation. The recipient is unrecognized and there’s no policy triggered to change the primary delivery route.
19	Message was dropped by Gmail. Common reasons include: If a sent message triggers admin quarantine consequences, the original message is dropped and a copy of the message is added to the Admin Quarantine. For a journaling message, the wrapped inner message is delivered but the original message is dropped. For inbound messages, Gmail can block and drop messages if, for example: The message is not compliant with RFC 5322. The sender violates bulk senders guidelines. If a policy removed the primary delivery route and added other routes, the original message is dropped and copies are delivered to the added routes. If the recipient is an unrecognized address and there’s a policy that adds additional routes, the original message is dropped and copies are delivered to the added routes.
45	Message was accepted for delivery by the Google Groups subsystem.
46	Message's recipient address was a Google Group, and the recipient was expanded to each member of the Google Group that has message delivery enabled.
48	Message received by inbound SMTP server for relay.
49	Message sent through relay by outbound SMTP server.
51	Message was written to Google Groups storage.
54	Message was rejected by the Google Groups storage system.
55	Message was re-inserted into Gmail by policies that modify the primary delivery route or envelope recipient.
68	Message accepted by Gmail and prepared for delivery. This is similar to 2, but the message was sent through a Gmail server.
69	A user changed the message’s spam classification in Gmail. For example, a user marked it as spam, phishing, or not spam.
70	The message was reclassified as spam or phishing after it was delivered to Gmail.
71	A user took an action in the inbox after receiving the message. Post-delivery actions include opening a message, clicking a link in a message, and downloading an attachment. BigQuery export doesn't provide details about the action.
