Can I issue a query rather than specify a table when using the BigQuery connector for Spark?

I have used the Use the BigQuery connector with Spark to extract data from a table in BigQuery by running the code on Google Dataproc. As far as I'm aware the code shared there:



conf = 
# Input Parameters.
'mapred.bq.project.id': project,
'mapred.bq.gcs.bucket': bucket,
'mapred.bq.temp.gcs.path': input_directory,
'mapred.bq.input.project.id': 'publicdata',
'mapred.bq.input.dataset.id': 'samples',
'mapred.bq.input.table.id': 'shakespeare',


# Output Parameters.
output_dataset = 'wordcount_dataset'
output_table = 'wordcount_output'

# Load data in from BigQuery.
table_data = sc.newAPIHadoopRDD(
'com.google.cloud.hadoop.io.bigquery.JsonTextBigQueryInputFormat',
'org.apache.hadoop.io.LongWritable',
'com.google.gson.JsonObject',
conf=conf)


copies the entirety of the named table into input_directory. The table I need to extract data from contains >500m rows and I don't need all of those rows. Is there a way to instead issue a query (as opposed to specifying a table) so that I can copy a subset of the data from a table?

    An alternative is to create a temp table then read it with Spark.

Doesn't look like BigQuery supports any kind of filtering/querying for tables export at the moment:
