Google Big Query and Power BI

I read that the Google Big Query Connector for Power BI is not working properly and I should use the ODBCdriver from Simba Technologies to connect. Has anyone got experience developing Power BI reports from Google Big Query, are there more cons or tips how to work with Big Query together with Power BI? Please advise. Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Normally, we could use Google Big Query Connector in Power BI Desktop. 

If you cannot connect it with Google Big Query Connector successfully, you could try ODBC driver.

Please refer to this similar thread which has been solved.

Hi,

 

I am having a similar problem being unable to connect to Google Big Query and Power BI. I have set up an ODBC driver connector and configured the test connection which seems to work. However, i can only see the project name from google big query database in power bi  and not the actual data tables. Can someone help?
