title: bq extract - BigQuery error in extract operation: An internal error occurred and the request could not be completed
body: <p>I am trying to export a table from BigQuery to google storage using the following command within the console:</p>
  <pre><code>bq --location=&lt;hidden&gt; extract --destination_format CSV --compression GZIP --field_delimiter &quot;|&quot; --print_header=true &lt;project&gt;:&lt;dataset&gt;.&lt;table&gt; gs://&lt;airflow_bucket&gt;/data/zip/20200706_&lt;hidden_name&gt;.gzip
  </code></pre>
  <p>I get the following error :</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>BigQuery error in extract operation: An internal error occurred and the request could not be completed.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Here is some information about the said table</p>
  <pre><code>Table ID    &lt;HIDDEN&gt; 
  Table size 6,18 GB
  Number of rows   25 854 282 
  Created 18.06.2020, 15:26:10 
  Table expiration     Never

  <p>What I'm trying to do here, is extract this table into google storage. Since the table is &gt; 1 Gb, then it gets fragmented... I want to assemble all those fragments into one archive, into a google cloud storage bucket.</p>
  <p>What is happening here? How do I fix this?</p>
  <p>Note: I've hidden the actual names and locations of the table &amp; other information with the mention  <code>&lt;hidden&gt;</code> or <code>&lt;airflow_bucket&gt;</code> or `:.</p>
