The Guardian API → Google BigQuery
AI-first ETL from The Guardian API into Google BigQuery. Governed entities, incremental sync, typed landing tables.
How Datrise loads The Guardian API into Google BigQuery
Datrise syncs The Guardian API's records, events, and configuration objects into Google BigQuery as a partitioned table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in JSON or nested/repeated (STRUCT) columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as TIMESTAMP.
Sync is incremental: Datrise uses appends to a staging table, then MERGE on stable id into the partitioned target, so re-runs update only what changed. Partition by ingestion or event date and cluster by entity id to keep scanned bytes low. BigQuery bills by bytes scanned, so Datrise partitions and clusters every table to keep query costs predictable.
Ideal for Google-stack analytics and ML on serverless infrastructure.

FAQ
How does Datrise handle The Guardian API's custom fields in Google BigQuery?
Flexible values are stored as JSON or nested/repeated (STRUCT) columns, so new fields don't require a migration; strongly-typed fields — dates, numbers, and references — are promoted to native Google BigQuery types.
How does the The Guardian API to Google BigQuery sync stay up to date?
It runs incrementally — Datrise uses appends to a staging table, then MERGE on stable id into the partitioned target.
