Network connectivity and DNS resolution failures

Error:

java.net.UnknownHostException: bigquery.googleapis.com

or

Failed to connect to Google APIs: Connection refused

Cause:

These errors typically indicate that network policies are preventing the connector from resolving or reaching Google API domains. This commonly occurs when using a security egress gateway without proper allowlist configuration.

Resolution:

Add the following Google API domains to your network policy allowlist:

  • bigquery.googleapis.com
  • oauth2.googleapis.com
  • bigquerystorage.googleapis.com
  • googleapis.com
