GCP Error 409 duplicate while trying to create a table

Question

I am getting "409" error while trying to create a table using BigQuery. How do I resolve this?

Answer 1

This error returns when trying to create a job, dataset or table that already exists. 

The error also returns when a job's writeDisposition property is set to WRITE_EMPTY and the destination table accessed by the job already exists.

Rename the resource you're trying to create, or change the writeDisposition value in the job.

This should help!
