Dataflow export to Bigquery: insertAll error, invalid table reference - google-bigquery

Question

I'm trying to create and export a stream of synthetic data using Dataflow, Pub/Sub, and BigQuery. I followed the synthetic data generation instructions using the following schema:
{
"id": "{{uuid()}}",
"test_value": {{integer(1,50)}}
}
The schema is in a file gs://my-folder/my-schema.json. The stream seems to be running correctly - I can export from the corresponding Pub/Sub topic to a GCS bucket using the "Export to Cloud Storage" template. When I try to use the "Export to BigQuery" template, I keep getting this error:
Request failed with code 400, performed 0 retries due to IOExceptions, performed 0 retries due to unsuccessful status codes, HTTP framework says request can be retried, (caller responsible for retrying): https://bigquery.googleapis.com/bigquery/v2/projects/<my-project>/datasets/<my-dataset>/tables/<my-table>/insertAll.
Before starting the export job, I created an empty table <my-project>:<my-dataset>.<my-table> with fields that match the JSON schema above:
id STRING NULLABLE
test_value INTEGER NULLABLE
I have outputTableSpec set to <my-project>:<my-dataset>.<my-table>.

Answer 1

If the BQ table name is given in the form project:dataset.table, then there cannot be any hyphens in the table string. I was using my-project.test.stream-data-102720 when I got the code 400 error. Creating a new table my-project.test.stream_data_102720 and re-running the job with the new name fixed the problem.
