schema_from_json docs and samples #1069
Description
The schema_from_json method is useful for loading a BigQuery schema file into the Python objects expected by our client library. There are several opportunities for Python code samples in the Using a BigQuery JSON schema file section of the docs describing that format:
- You can write an existing table schema to a local file by entering the following
command[Python code] (schema_to_jsonsample) --bigquery_schema_file_from_table - The following
command[Python code] loads data into a table using the schema definition in a JSON file --bigquery_load_with_schema_file - The following
command[Python code] creates an empty table in an existing dataset using the schema definition in a JSON file --bigquery_create_table_with_schema_file

In addition, I think
schema_from_jsonis missing a return type based on what I'm seeing in the docs.tswast commentedon Nov 17, 2021
@loferris Potential task for once you've finished the code samples at #778

With the merging of #1436 and #1439 I think this is fixed, but wanted to validate that the missing return type for
schema_from_jsonis also fixed before closing. cc: @tswasttswast commentedon Jun 13, 2023
@leahecole fixed the missing return type in https://github.com/googleapis/python-bigquery/pull/1582/files
Makes sense to me to close.
