"Row larger than the maximum allowed size"

I am trying to import some json.gz data into BigQuery. I have 20 datasets (one per year). The import processes chokes on 5 of them with the "Row larger than the maximum allowed size" error message.

What does that mean? Is there a way to expand the size? Is there a way to have the importer ignore the error?

regards,

Arnaud

The maximum size of a row is 20 MB. If you set the maxBadRecords value in the load configuration, it will allow that many failed records in the load job.
