BigQuery

Going over how to find your BigQuery settings and outline the typing support.

Finding your BigQuery settings

Getting your project identifier

When you are in your GCP project, you can see your GCP project ID at the top of the navigation bar.

Getting your default dataset

In order for Transfer to connect to BigQuery, we will need to specify a default dataset.

The default dataset is only meant to establish the initial connection with BigQuery. The actual dataset specified within topicConfig can be different from the default dataset!

Retrieving your credentials

For best practice, create a separate service account for Transfer and download the keys by following this guide from Google!
