- MySQL
- BigQuery

Connecting a database
Click + Add database in the Database Access settings, select your database type, and provide the connection details. Use read-only credentials when possible — Indent only needs to read data, not write it.
For cloud warehouses like BigQuery and Snowflake, you’ll provide account-level credentials (service account key or account/warehouse/role). For PostgreSQL, MySQL, and ClickHouse, you’ll provide standard connection details (host, port, database, username, password).
Give each connection a clear name so it’s easy to identify when selecting a database in a session. You can also add a short description to provide business context or explain schema naming conventions.
