Connecting to Large Google Bigquery Data set

We've got a large table in Google Big Query (18mn+ Rows and 39 Columns, 9.9 GB in size) which is constantly growing with nearly 10,000 rows being added a day.

 

We would like to start visualizing the data in PowerBI and were wondering if this was possible? Should we create a direct connection to the data source and just go or take some steps into this?

We've used Data Studio successfully in the past by just connecting directly to the data and were wondering if we could do the same here.

    Hi kmshah ,

     

    You can use Get Data option to connect to Google Big Query.

    However, Power BI is not supported for DirectQuery mode on Google Big Query, you can submit your idea to Microsoft if you want.

    For more details please check the document below.
