How to connect Google Cloud BigQuery and Apify
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Cloud BigQuery and Apify
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google Cloud BigQuery, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Cloud BigQuery or Apify will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Cloud BigQuery or Apify, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Cloud BigQuery Node
Select the Google Cloud BigQuery node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Cloud BigQuery, Apify, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Google Cloud BigQuery and Apify integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud BigQuery and Apify (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Cloud BigQuery and Apify
Apify + Google Cloud BigQuery + Google Sheets: When an Apify actor or task finishes running, its dataset items are fetched and loaded into Google Cloud BigQuery. Then, summary insights from BigQuery are added as rows to a Google Sheet for reporting.
Apify + Google Cloud BigQuery + Slack: When an Apify actor or task finishes, its extracted data is fetched and loaded into Google Cloud BigQuery. Slack then sends a message to a specified channel to notify the team about the new records in BigQuery.
