Enabling BigQuery in Google Cloud and exporting GA4 data

<aside> 📌

To use the User Analytics feature, you must export your GA4 data to BigQuery. - If you have not exported your GA4 data, please start from the beginning of this page. - If you have already exported GA4 data to BigQuery, please refer to the Amethyst side of this page.

Because you use BigQuery, you will be charged a fee for using BigQuery by Google in addition to Amethyst's fee, but BigQuery has a free quota of up to 10GiB per month.
