To add a Google BigQuery Data Warehouse as a Data Source on AirOps, use a Google Cloud Platform service account with **read** access to the desired datasets and tables:

### 1. Create a Google Cloud Platform Service Account

1. Go to the [Google Cloud Platform Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/).
2. Click on the project dropdown and select the project that contains your BigQuery dataset.
3. Navigate to the **IAM & Admin** page, and then click **Service accounts**.
4. Click **+ CREATE SERVICE ACCOUNT** at the top of the page.
5. Enter a name for your service account and click **Create**.
6. On the **Grant this service account access to the project** page, select the **BigQuery Data Viewer** and **BigQuery Job User** roles.
7. Click **Continue**, and then click **Done**.

### 2. Generate a JSON key for the Service Account

1. In the **Service accounts** page, find the service account you just created.
2. Click the **Actions** menu (three vertical dots) and select **Create key**.
3. Select **JSON** as the key type, and click **Create**.
4. Save the generated JSON key file to your computer.
