## About

# BigQuery MCP server

[](https://smithery.ai/server/mcp-server-bigquery)

A Model Context Protocol server that provides access to BigQuery. This server enables LLMs to inspect database schemas and execute queries.

## Components

### Tools

The server implements one tool:

- `execute-query`: Executes a SQL query using BigQuery dialect
- `list-tables`: Lists all tables in the BigQuery database
- `describe-table`: Describes the schema of a specific table

## Configuration

The server can be configured either with command line arguments or environment variables.

| Argument     | Environment Variable | Required | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |

| `--dataset`  | `BIGQUERY_DATASETS`  | No       | Only take specific BigQuery datasets into consideration. Several datasets can be specified by repeating the argument (e.g. `--dataset my_dataset_1 --dataset my_dataset_2`) or by joining them with a comma in the environment variable (e.g. `BIGQUERY_DATASETS=my_dataset_1,my_dataset_2`). If not provided, all datasets in the project will be considered. |

| `--timeout`  | `BIGQUERY_TIMEOUT`   | No       | Maximum time in seconds to wait for a query to complete. If not provided, queries will wait indefinitely.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
