Cannot connect to Company BigQuery

Hi all, 
Hoping someone can help!

I love that there is now a BigQuery connector - BUT the only data I'm presented with is the BigQuery public dataset.

What do I need to do to connect to my own company's BigQuery data?

 

My P BI profile has access to my compan's BigQuery data

    Philip,

    Based on this blog, with this connector, you can select data from the bigquery-public-data project and any other project associated with your Google BigQuery account. 

    I am not familiar with company's BigQuery data, does Power BI Desktop show other projects associated with your account besides the public data project?

    Regards,
    Lydia

      Hi Lydia,,

      Thank you for your post.

      The problem is, is that I'm only seeing public big query data and not my onw company's data using the connector.

        Philip,

        The connector is still under development, I would recommend you submit an idea here:https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200 .

        In addition, what is the result when you import data from Google BigQuery using an ODBC driver?

        Regards,

    Hi

     

    I am also really pleased that the Google Big Query Connector has gone live but I am getting the below error - any ideas?

     

    DataSource.Error: ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][BigQuery] (20) Query execution failed:
    Details:
    DataSourceKind=GoogleBigQuery
    DataSourcePath=GoogleBigQuery
    OdbcErrors=Table

     

    Any help much appreciated!

      Hi Anonymous,

       

      I've just downloaded the October release of PBI Desktop and receive an error when trying to use the GBQ (beta) connector:

       

      Details: "ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][BigQuery] (100) Error interacting with REST API: SSL connect error
      ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][BigQuery] (100) Error interacting with REST API: SSL connect error"

       

      Has anyone had success connecting to their own projects with the October release? Either import or DQ?
