Overview

What Google Cloud BigQuery does

BigQuery is Google Cloud's analytical warehouse, and this connector comes from Google itself. It follows the path an analyst takes anyway: find the datasets in a project, read a dataset's metadata, list its tables, read a table's schema, then run SQL against it. Features the listing points at beyond ordinary aggregation, forecasting among them, are reached through SQL rather than through dedicated tools, so what the connector adds is access rather than new analysis. Connecting requires a Google Cloud project and credentials carrying the relevant BigQuery permissions, since every call is scoped to a project. It carries the partner tier.

Who it is for

Data analysts and engineers querying an existing BigQuery project.

Tool surface

Six tools answered, one more than the listing claims: four metadata reads walking from list_dataset_ids down to get_table_info, then two query paths, execute_sql_readonly and execute_sql, whose own descriptions tell the caller to prefer the read-only one.

Where Google Cloud BigQuery is listed

Google Cloud BigQuery is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Google has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.

The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.

Claude listing

In the Claude connectors directory

Google Cloud BigQuery publishes 5 tools to Claude, a deliberately narrow surface; only 22.3% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.

The median Claude-listed connector filed under Data & Analytics publishes 12, so this one sits 7 tools below its bucket's median, 151st of 198.

It falls in the 4-6 tools band, which holds 16.2% of the Claude directory.

Measured against the live endpoint

A direct call to the endpoint returned 6 tools, 1 more than the 5 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07.

Tools the server actually returns

  • list_dataset_ids
  • get_dataset_info
  • list_table_ids
  • get_table_info
  • execute_sql_readonly
  • execute_sql

Google Cloud BigQuery publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.

Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

Snapshot
August 2026

Google Cloud BigQuery carries partner verification in the Claude directory, which 474 of 1,253 listings do (37.8%). That is a review step past self-publishing, not an Anthropic-built server.

In the publisher's words

How Google describes it

Integrate analytical data into your agent workflows to achieve superior business results. By connecting your agents with BigQuery, you can provide actionable insights directly to them. Move past standard analytics and utilize BigQuery's advanced features, such as forecasting, to generate higher-value intelligence.

This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from Google Cloud BigQuery's public marketplace listing as it stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's.
