Now what? People often start learning BigQuery by playing with an available public data set. If the Editor tab isn’t immediately visible, click on the “Compose New Query” button at the top right. Click on it, and you’ll get to the BigQuery console with the name of your project and no data inside. Now BigQuery will always show up at the top of your Google Cloud Console left navigation menu. You can “pin” it by mousing over until you see the pin icon and then clicking on it. Scroll down to the bottom of the left navigation in the main Google Cloud home screen to find the BigQuery service. (If you don’t see a left nav, click the three-line “hamburger” at the very top left to open it.) Scroll all of the way down, find BigQuery, hover your mouse over it until you see a pin icon, and click the pin. One way is to “pin” BigQuery to the top of your left navigation menu. The initial Google Cloud home screen can be a bit overwhelming if you are looking to use just one service. What are all these things and where is BigQuery? You probably don’t need to worry about most of the other services, but you do want to be able to easily find BigQuery in the midst of them all. Once you finish your new project setup, you’ll see a general Google Cloud dashboard that may seem a bit overwhelming.
If you don’t like the project ID that is automatically generated for your project, you can edit it, assuming you don’t pick something that is already taken. If you don’t like the default project ID assigned to your project, you can edit it before clicking the Create button. Then click ”Create.” Screenshot by Sharon Machlis, IDG If you have billing enabled already in your Google account you’ll be required to select a billing account if you don’t, that probably won’t appear as an option. Click on the dropdown menu to the right of “Google Cloud Platform” (it might say “select project” if you don’t have any projects already). You should see the option to create a new project at the left side of Google Cloud’s top navigation bar. Screenshot by Sharon Machlis, IDGĬlick the New Project option in order to create a new project. R veterans note: While projects are a good idea when working in RStudio, they’re mandatory in Google Cloud. Then, head to the Google Cloud Console at, log in with your Google account, and create a new cloud project.
