Google Workflow insert a bigquery job that queries a federated Google Drive table

Question

I am working on an ELT using workflows. So far very good. However, one of my tables is based on a Google sheet and that job fails on "Access Denied: BigQuery BigQuery: Permission denied while getting Drive credentials."

I know I need to add the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive scope to the request and the service account that is used by the workflow needs access to the sheet. The access is correct and if I do an authenticated insert using curl it works fine.

My logic is that I should add the drive scope. However I do not know where/how to add it. Am I missing something?

The step in the Workflow:

        call: googleapis.bigquery.v2.jobs.insert
        args:
          projectId: ${sys.get_env("GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT_ID")}
          body:
            configuration:
              query:
                query: select * from `*****.domains_sheet_view`
                destinationTable:
                  projectId: ${sys.get_env("GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT_ID")}
                  datasetId: ***
                  tableId: domains
                create_disposition: CREATE_IF_NEEDED
                write_disposition: WRITE_TRUNCATE
                allowLargeResults: true
                useLegacySql: false```

AFAIK for connectors, you cannot customize the scope parameter but you can customize if you put together the HTTP call yourself.

1. add the service account as a viewer on the Google Docs
2. then run the workflow

here is my program

#workflow entrypoint
main:
  steps:
    - initialize:
        assign:
          - project: ${sys.get_env("GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT_ID")}
    - makeBQJob:
        call: BQJobsInsertJobWithSheets
        args:
          project: ${project}
          configuration:
              query:
                query: SELECT * FROM `ndc.autoritati_publice` LIMIT 10
                destinationTable:
                  projectId: ${project}
                  datasetId: ndc
                  tableId: autoritati_destination
                create_disposition: CREATE_IF_NEEDED
                write_disposition: WRITE_TRUNCATE
                allowLargeResults: true
                useLegacySql: false
        result: res
    - final:
        return: ${res}
#subworkflow definitions
BQJobsInsertJobWithSheets:
  params: [project, configuration]
  steps:
    - runJob:
        try:
          call: http.post
          args:
            url: ${"https://bigquery.googleapis.com/bigquery/v2/projects/"+project+"/jobs"}
            headers:
              Content-type: "application/json"
            auth:
              type: OAuth2
              scope: ["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive","https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform","https://www.googleapis.com/auth/bigquery"]
            body:
              configuration: ${configuration}
          result: queryResult
        except:
          as: e
          steps:
            - UnhandledException:
                raise: ${e}
        next: queryCompleted
    - pageNotFound:
        return: "Page not found."
    - authError:
        return: "Authentication error."
    - queryCompleted:
        return: ${queryResult.body}
