Say I have a BQ table containing the following information
| id | test.name | test.score |
|---- |----------- |------------ |
| 1 | a
Below is generic/dynamic way to handle your case
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE (
SELECT """
SELECT id, """ ||
STRING_AGG("""MAX(IF(name = '""" || name || """', score, NULL)) AS """ || name, ', ')
|| """
FROM `project.dataset.table` t, t.test
GROUP BY id
"""
FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT name
FROM `project.dataset.table` t, t.test
ORDER BY name
)
);
If to apply to sample data from your question - output is
Row id a b c
1 1 5 7 null
2 2 8 null 3
