I'm working on a Dataform project using the @dataform/cli (https://cloud.google.com/dataform/docs/use-dataform-cli) package. I want to run the dataform run --dry-run to check my final SQL. I every got the same error:
Dataform encountered an error: Unexpected property "type", or property value type of "string" is incorrect.
ReferenceError: Unexpected property "type", or property value type of "string" is incorrect.
I can compile my project without errors (dataform compile), but with dataform run --dry-run, I'm getting stuck.
Can anyone know what the problem is?
I found the solution, I ran this command dataform init-creds and later it generated a .df-credentials.json file in my project directory like this:
{
"projectId": "project",
"location": "location"
}
When you run the command you will be prompted to choose these options:
$ dataform init-creds
[1] US (default)
[2] EU
[3] other
Enter the location of your datasets [1, 2, 3]: 2
[1] ADC (default)
[2] JSON Key
Do you wish to use Application Default Credentials or JSON Key [1/2]: 1
Enter your billing project ID:

I hope this helps!
