There doesn't appear to be a way to set the JobId, making cancel(String JobiD) challenging.

Looking at Python L35, The query Job takes a JobId. There doesn't appear to be a similar method for Java. ;(

    client = bigquery.Client()
    query_job = client.run_async_query(str(uuid.uuid4()), query)
    query_job.use_legacy_sql = False
    query_job.begin()

    Where? and why is cancel challenging?

    Tim's explanation of the string variant of cancel(String "id") is that it is a name provided by the user on create, in the case of the Python samples a UUID. The .jobId() is the other kind. If you can't ever set / create with a name/id, then what's the point of the string method?

    I presume, I could perhaps, use .jobId().toString(), in the snippets, but that just seems weird.

    It's also terribly possible that I'm not understanding something, but Tim couldn't find it either, and wrote another issue for it.

    But you can create a job passing your own name:

    String jobName = "my_job";
JobInfo jobInfo = JobInfo.of(JobId.of(jobName), QueryJobConfiguration.of("SELECT * FROM table"));
