Note
Within the Analytics Environment, a Google account is created for a data analyst to access BigQuery. Although users are automatically logged into BigQuery with this account, you may need to enter the account email address when using Tableau Desktop. The account name can be found by logging into BigQuery within the Analytics Environment and then clicking on the person icon in the top right-hand corner of the GCP console.
Enter your email address and click Next.
Click to give Google access to your Google account.
Close the authentication window that opened after the previous step.
Tableau connects with BigQuery, and a Tableau book window opens.
