Google BigQuery The property 'references' is a RECORD type when not using property

[Mateusz_Bijakowski]

Describe the problem/error/question

I’m trying to push data to big query, I’m only pushing manually “set” variables, all of them are string, It’s possible that target table has “references” but I’m not pushing those.
I’m directly replicating 2 node workflow I have in Zappier that does exactly same thing.

What is the error message (if any)?

ERROR: The property ‘references’ is a RECORD type, but the value is nor an object nor a valid JSON string

Please share your workflow

I no longer need help with this but this node has some bugs.

Hi @Mateusz_Bijakowski Glad to hear you got this sorted - would you mind posting your solution, and the bugs you encountered so we can take a closer look?

Node kept complaining that valid JSON (that I don’t push) is not valid.
Trying to push it also didn’t work.

I just removed that whole column from target table as I didn’t need it and it stopped trying to update it.
