Google Cloud New shared BigQuery datasets and GCP projects is not visible for my user

Question

I am not seeing new projects or BigQuery datasets that have been shared with me.

My colleague have tried to share a new BigQury dataset with me but it is not visible for me. We have tried to share the same dataset with another user the exact same way without any issue.

We have a similar issue with my user when we try to share any new GCP projects with my user, which have not been an issue in the past.

Answer 1

Let's suppose you have project1 and project2 and you've never shared any dataset from project1 with project2. When you first share a dataset from project1 with project2 the dataset will not be shown automatically. For that you need to follow the following steps.

• Go to the BQ Console 
• Click on +Add Data just above the search bar.
• Click on Pin a Project.
• Enter the project ID and click on PIN

After that every dataset inside project1 that you share with project2 will be automatically shown.
