             Summary: Records including datetime to be saved as DATETIME or 
TIMESTAMP in BigQuery
                 Key: BEAM-5510
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-5510
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: sdk-py-core
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
            Reporter: Pascal Gula
            Assignee: Ahmet Altay


When trying to write some row in BigQuery that include a python datetime 
object, the marshaling used to save a row in BigQuery is impossible.
{code:java}
File 
"/home/pascal/Wks/GitHub/PEAT-AI/Albatros/venv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/apache_beam/internal/gcp/json_value.py",
 line 124, in to_json_value
    raise TypeError('Cannot convert %s to a JSON value.' % repr(obj))
TypeError: Cannot convert datetime.datetime(2018, 9, 25, 18, 57, 18, 108579) to 
a JSON value. [while running 'save/WriteToBigQuery']
{code}
However, this is something perfectly feasible, as `google-cloud-python` 
supports it since this issue has been solved: 
[https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-python/issues/2957]

thanks to this pull request: 
[https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-python/pull/3426/files]

As similar approach could be taken for the `json_value.py` helper.

Is there any workaround that can be applied to solve this issue?
