@kapa.ai Bigquery connector was working fine for a long time, suddenly getting the error "Could not access the GCS bucket with the provided configuration.". We haven't changed anything on our end and we're on Airbyte Cloud

This error message suggests that there might be an issue with the Google Cloud Storage (GCS) bucket configuration or access permissions. Here are a few things you can check: 1. Bucket Permissions: Ensure that the Google Cloud Service Account has the
Storage Object Admin
role. This must be the same service account as the one you configure for BigQuery access in the BigQuery connector setup step [[source](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/destinations/bigquery#recommended-using-a-google-cloud-storage-bucket)]. 2. Bucket Path: Check if your GCS bucket path has a trailing
/
. If it does, delete it [[source](https://discuss.airbyte.io/t/3806)]. 3. Bucket Encryption: Your bucket must be encrypted using a Google-managed encryption key (this is the default setting when creating a new bucket). Airbyte currently does not support buckets using customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK) [[source](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/destinations/bigquery#recommended-using-a-google-cloud-storage-bucket)]. 4. Airbyte Version: Ensure you are using the latest version of Airbyte. There have been significant refactors and updates that might resolve your issue [[source](https://discuss.airbyte.io/t/3806)]. If you've checked all of these and the issue persists, it might be helpful to open a new topic on the [Airbyte discussion forum](https://discuss.airbyte.io/) or create a new issue on the [Airbyte GitHub page](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues) for further assistance.

Nevermind, our google cloud trial ended, so had to upgrade the plan, which fixed the issue
