If that does not work, check issues- These are updated this month - https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues
Sullyball2a could you please expand a bit on the workaround you found? You used a Dataflow to connect ot BigQuery data? I see exactly the same error you shared but quite honestly do not know how to start troubleshooting. I have full ownership over BigQuery resources, so is definately not a permissions issue.

While the solution I mentioned did work I ended up setting up an ODBC connection the BigQuery. I then configured a connection with the same name on the gateway server. On the plus side it allows me to copy my BigQuery SQL to the Advanced section in the ODBC connection. The negative is that I'm unsure of how I'll share that connection with others - working through that at the moment.
The initial solution you asked for more detail on was using a Dataflow - by going to the shared workspace and adding a dataflow
Then navigating to Add new Tables:
Finally choosing the BigQuery Connector.
Hopefully this helps
