Google Cloud Storage FAQ

What file formats can CloudQuery load from AWS to Google Cloud Storage?

CloudQuery can output CSV, JSON and Parquet files to Google Cloud. If you choose a CSV file, there are a number of CSV specific parameters that you can set before running the sync such as the delimiter and whether the header row is skipped.

The CloudQuery GCS integration authenticates by using your Application Default Credentials and all of the options are available. For testing purposes, it is possible to specify your GCS access credentials via the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS parameter but this is not recommended for long-term usage.

AWS FAQ

What permissions does the AWS integration require to run?

To sync your data to Google Cloud Storage the CloudQuery AWS integration only requires read permissions. The integration will never need to make any changes to your AWS setup, and we recommend that you only grant read permissions.

CloudQuery does not have access to any of the data you sync from AWS. We only collect only metadata about usage for billing purposes. The CloudQuery CLI will only have access to the data that you grant it permission to access. You will always be in control of the data that is being synced from AWS to Google Cloud Storage and will have the ability to revoke permissions at any time.

Anyone can try CloudQuery completely free of charge for 14 days, regardless of how much data you move from AWS to Google Cloud Storage. After your trial ends, you can continue to sync one million rows every month completely free of charge - any further syncs are charged based on a simple pay as you go pricing model per million rows. The more you sync, the less you pay per row.
