What you would like to accomplish: import the data from a compressed GZIP file


How this might work:

When importing data to a dataset in AutoML Table, you can use a compressed GZIP file (containing a CSV format file).

[Optional]

From the Cloud Console:

Export bigquery-public-data.noaa_lightning.lightning_2019 to GCS as lightning_2019.gz (Format: CSV) (Compression: GZIP)

[Required]

Upload to a GCS bucket a table in CSV format with GZIP compression.

For demonstration I'll use the sample project [1], and the sample Import_dataset [2].

After the initial setup to start using the service [3], create a dataset, you use the sample [4] to create the dataset:

node samples/tables/create-dataset.v1beta1 projectId computeRegion datasetName

Now import the data to the dataset:

node samples/tables/import-data.v1beta1 projectId location datasetId path

This should be successful, instead of giving error.
