# 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 with the following arguments:
- `--project` (required): The GCP project ID.
- `--location` (required): The GCP location (e.g. `europe-west9`).
- `--dataset` (optional): 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`). If not provided, all datasets in the project will be considered.
## Quickstart
### Install
#### Installing via Smithery
To install BigQuery Server for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/mcp-server-bigquery):
```bash
npx -y @smithery/cli install mcp-server-bigquery --client claude
```
#### Claude Desktop
On MacOS: `~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
##### Development/Unpublished Servers Configuration</summary>
```json
"mcpServers": {
"bigquery": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"{{PATH_TO_REPO}}",
"run",
"mcp-server-bigquery",
"--project",
"{{GCP_PROJECT_ID}}",
"--location",
"{{GCP_LOCATION}}"
]
}
}
```
##### Published Servers Configuration
```json
"mcpServers": {
"bigquery": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"mcp-server-bigquery",
"--project",
"{{GCP_PROJECT_ID}}",
"--location",
"{{GCP_LOCATION}}"
]
}
}
```
Replace `{{PATH_TO_REPO}}`, `{{GCP_PROJECT_ID}}`, and `{{GCP_LOCATION}}` with the appropriate values.
## Development
### Building and Publishing
To prepare the package for distribution:
1. Sync dependencies and update lockfile:
```bash
uv sync
```
2. Build package distributions:
```bash
uv build
```
This will create source and wheel distributions in the `dist/` directory.
3. Publish to PyPI:
```bash
uv publish
```
Note: You'll need to set PyPI credentials via environment variables or command flags:
- Token: `--token` or `UV_PUBLISH_TOKEN`
- Or username/password: `--username`/`UV_PUBLISH_USERNAME` and `--password`/`UV_PUBLISH_PASSWORD`
### Debugging
Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging
experience, we strongly recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector).
You can launch the MCP Inspector via [`npm`](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm) with this command:
```bash
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv --directory {{PATH_TO_REPO}} run mcp-server-bigquery
```
Upon launching, the Inspector will display a URL that you can access in your browser to begin debugging.
