Setup Instructions for Google BigQuery

This subtopic provides step-by-step instructions to integrate a BigQuery Destination database with Daton, detailing the prerequisites and the integration process.

Setting up access to your BigQuery warehouse is not very complicated and just takes a couple of simple steps. 

Follow the steps below to set it up for yourself, if you are stuck somewhere, feel free to contact out support team at support@sarasanalytics.com. 

  • First make sure that you set up the resources on BigQuery.  
  • Then come to Daton and set up the destination. 

Set up on BigQuery

Task 1: Sign up for GCP and get Google Credits

  • Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/ and sign in with a Google Account.
  • You will be provided with a $300 credit initially which can be extended by Google on a case-to-case basis.

Step 2: Create a BigQuery Project

  • Create a BigQuery project on Google Console.
  • Click on  'Select a Project' and create a new dedicated project for Daton.
