*OAuth 2.0 authentication allows the user to authenticate to a Google BigQuery instance without having to specify user ID and password.
*Service account authentication. It allows the users to authenticate to a Google BigQuery instance using a service account, which is a type of Google account that represents an application instead of an individual end user.
