Google BigQuery rate limiting Tableau

0

Google BigQuery is refusing the connection because the rate limit has been exceeded.

We are a paying customer of Google BigQuery, and therefore this should not be happening. The message is passed from Google to Tableau and is: "Quota exceeded: Your project exceeded quota for free query bytes scanned." However I can happily run queries through Google's UI but Tableau does not let me proceed. Can you please advise how to solve this? Thanks!

"Your project exceeded quota for free query bytes scanned" - means you are using a project without a billing account - your queries will be limited to a free terabyte every month. Consider using a project that has billing enabled, and please remember to turn on your cost controls. stackoverflow.com/a/52831057/132438 – Felipe Hoffa

Since the error message shows: "Quota exceeded: Your project exceeded quota for free query bytes scanned.", you should enable billing for the project so that you're not hitting the free query quota. Though you're paying customer of Google BigQuery, but it might happen that this specific project is not billing enabled.
