This error indicates that BigQuery Data Transfer is disabled in the Google Cloud Project we are trying to push data to. Without BigQuery Data Transfer enabled, we cannot perform the necessary actions for Alvie services to run.

Error: BigQuery Data Transfer has not been enabled in the Google Cloud Project targetGCPProjectID. Please go to Google Cloud Platform and ensure BigQuery Data Transfer is enabled, or use a different project.

How to resolve this error

To enable the BigQuery Data Transfer Service, you have to be granted the Owner role for your project.

  1. Open the BigQuery Data Transfer API page in the API library.

  2. From the dropdown menu, select the appropriate project.

  3. Click the 'Enable' button and enable the Data Transfer API.

For more information, refer to GCP’s documentation here.
