> Using the {{FILE_LOADS}} method in {{WriteToBigQuery}}, it initially appears to work, sending load jobs, which then (at least sometimes) succeed and the data goes into the correct tables.
> But the temporary tables that were created never get deleted. Often the data was just never even copied from the temp tables to the destination.
> In the code ([https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/aca9099acca969dc217ab183782e5270347cd354/sdks/python/apache_beam/io/gcp/bigquery_file_loads.py#L846)|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/aca9099acca969dc217ab183782e5270347cd354/sdks/python/apache_beam/io/gcp/bigquery_file_loads.py#L846]
> ...it appears that after the load jobs, beam should wait for them to finish, then copy the data from the temp tables and delete them; however, it seems that when used with a streaming pipeline, it doesn't complete these steps.
>  
> In case it's not clear, this is for the python SDK.
