BigQuery

Instructions for syncing data into Vitally via Google BigQuery

Requirements

1. The BigQuery project must have a Service Account with the jobs.create permission (such as the BigQuery.User role) in order to run queries, and have access to the dataset you'd like to connect to.

   • Service Accounts can be created in the Google Cloud Console here: https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts

2. To connect with this Service Account you'll need a Private Key .json file associated with the Service Account

   • Once a Service Account is created, a key can be created in the Keys tab for that account.

   • The key will be downloaded immediately and only once. If you lose the key you can always create a new one.

Creating a BigQuery Service Account key

Step 1 - Connect

• To connect to your BigQuery instance you simply need to upload the .json file containing the credentials for your Service Account.

• If you need to rotate or pick new credentials after connecting you can replace your existing credentials by uploading a new file.
