HI there, 
when i try to use BQ plugin i constantly get this error:

Invalid project ID 'xxxxxxx'. Project IDs must contain 6-63 lowercase letters, digits, or dashes. IDs must start with a letter and may not end with a dash.


the dataset name in BQ is a number (=view id in GA)
I´ve used this query in the Gsheet plugin
SELECT fullVisitorId FROM [732xxxxx.ga_sessions_201xxxxx] LIMIT 1000


any idea how to solve the issue?

thank you.
Shahin

No idea, that error is coming from Google, not our system.

HI can you please tell me what method you´re using to call the google API?
i would like to escalate this issue to our Google Support, 

is it possible that you´re switching ProjectId and ClientID in your call? see here

Does this still occur if you try now?

yes, still there.

Shouldn´t the project id include also the part after the ":" ?

Hello

We have added some additional logging to our system so we can try to understand exactly what is happening. So if you could try again and let us know when you have, we'll take a look again.

Hi Clinton,

I'm getting this error as well.

Please let me know if there is any specific data I can provide that will help you troubleshoot this.

To test if my BQ set up and authentication works with third-party solutions, I tested my query with the OWOX add-on for Google Sheets and after authenticating the same BQ account that I have set up in SM, OWOX returns the data requested by the query without throwing the "Invalid project ID" error.

Thanks for your help and attention to this.

Best,
Mike

Kind Regards
