   > I’ve learned from the Bigtable product team that Materialized Views 
currently return [structured row 
keys](https://docs.cloud.google.com/bigtable/docs/structured-row-key-queries) 
without a public decoding mapping. This makes it impossible to process row keys 
in Beam as originally intended. Reading all records is possible but reading row 
ranges is not reliably possible.
   > 
   > I’m putting this PR on hold until that prerequisite is addressed 
service-side, unless anyone with knowledge about this sees any other option to 
proceed without the structured row keys in place.
   > 
   > A 
[workaround](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/38053#issuecomment-4203569927)
 is documented in the associated issue with this PR
   
   so the prerequisite is providing client library that will allow serializing 
`structured row key` into ByteKey so the range scans work. That would need 
providing row key schema as it is not only delimiter but also there is plenty 
of flexibility in encoding.
