- CAssign the Project Owner role on the destination project, which automatically inherits administrative privileges on the linked Cloud Billing account.
- DConfigure budget alert thresholds to automatically terminate billing data pipeline instances when daily export limits are reached.
Answer
To configure Cloud Billing export to BigQuery, you must create a destination BigQuery dataset in a target project and ensure the user performing the setup holds the Billing Account Administrator or Billing Account Costs Manager role on the Cloud Billing account.
Setting up BigQuery billing export requires two distinct prerequisites: creating a destination BigQuery dataset in the project meant to hold billing tables, and holding explicit billing IAM roles (Billing Account Administrator or Billing Account Costs Manager) on the Cloud Billing account.
