was wondering if anyone else has had this error. I'm new to the tool, and trying to setup a postgres tap with a gbq target. pg tap installs just fine, but the

meltano add loader target-bigquery

returns:

Loader 'target-bigquery' could not be installed: failed to install plugin 'target-bigquery'.

Failed to install plugin(s)

I see in the repo that the 0.11.3 tag exists. Anyone else run into this?

Yes, I ran into the same issue yesterday. I parked that approach for now, and am using json files as my loader to go into BQ for now 🤓

Hey @chris_stout @nigel_vining, thanks for reporting! Can you try adding a custom

pip_url

to the plugin in

meltano.yml

?

plugins:
  loaders:
    - name: target-bigquery
      pip_url: git+<https://github.com/adswerve/target-bigquery.git@0.11.3>

I think the right tag is

0.11.3

(the target devs changed their mind with tag convention

v0.10.2 -> 0.11.3

).

Thanks Edgar, i’ll let you know tomorrow my time, just finished up for the day 🙂

Ah, good eye! I didn't catch that. Looked like it worked. I'll keep going and see how it goes. Thanks so much for unblocking me @edgar_ramirez_mondragon

@chris_stout Glad it worked!

I'm getting close, but running into some problems, not sure if you or Nigel had to do any sort of different GBQ auth. The docs I read have you creating a service account and creating a key, but I'm not going to have the ability to create keys. I can auth into google on the cli with gcloud auth login, but that's about it.

Yes, you need a service account keyfile. It can’t be run as a standard user/password account as that would require a call out to get an oauth token etc ….

That's right - was thinking kind of how dbt enabled oauth with bigquery like that
