BIgQuery Account Permissions

Hi

 

I'm  struggling  with  my PBI Data analysts using GCP bigquery projects dataset , regarding data quality & warnings 

 

Since april 21 BQ native connector needs :

  • Bud  I don't  have access to GCP IAM (console)  to check
  • And  with large tables , result is "empty/no rows"  
  • And there are no warnings / popups if at least one the 3 authorizations is missing  <-- an issue for me , as I consider PBI as the "tower control" for data quality  (every problem is monitored even API doesn't send message)  
  • I'm crying ....

 

Please , on which logs  ( power bi log  ,  simba odbc bq (the subcontractor & his techno) etc..  )   can I  get the proof  for my far away  BQ service , one of the 3 rights is missing   ?  

 

Thanks a lot and best regards

Hi, @Bamak 

 

If you can’t get the data, it’s a permission problem with the data source. You need to ask the administrator to grant you some permissions for BigQuery.

Hi -Janey

 

Thanks I read the doc several time

 

But with what kind of nighmare please , these permissions missing are not monitored on power bi deskop ?


Why no  provide a pre check control   as power bi must be the tower control of data quality 

- no warning 

- no popup

- nothings in the logs 

How to warn PBI developper ? 

Best regards

 

 

Hi, @Christophe93 

 

There are many data sources that powerbi can connect to, and every situation is not necessarily the same. In any case, powerbi doesn't have the right to see what kind of permission you have on the source data. This is also the security policy of powerbi.

Same problem on my side ... "silent" bad integration if permissions are missing
