execute_sql_readonly
shallowcom.googleapis.sqladmin/mcp · Verify this server
Execute any valid read only SQL statement on a Cloud SQL instance. To support the `execute_sql_readonly` tool, a Cloud SQL instance must meet the following requirements: * The value of `data_api_access` must be set to `ALLOW_DATA_API`. * For a MySQL instance, the database flag `cloudsql_iam_authentication` must be set to `on`. For a PostgreSQL instance, the database flag `cloudsql.iam_authentication` must be set to `on`. * An IAM user account or IAM service account (`CLOUD_IAM_USER` or `CLOUD_IAM_SERVICE_ACCOUNT`) is required to call the `execute_sql_readonly` tool. The tool executes the SQL statements using the privileges of the database user logged with IAM database authentication. After you use the `create_instance` tool to create an instance, you can use the `create_user` tool to create an IAM user account for the user currently logged in to the project. The `execute_sql_readonly` tool has the following limitations: * If a SQL statement returns a response larger than 10 MB, then the response will be truncated. * The tool has a default timeout of 30 seconds. If a query runs longer than 30 seconds, then the tool returns a `DEADLINE_EXCEEDED` error. * The tool isn't supported for SQL Server. If you receive errors similar to "IAM authentication is not enabled for the instance", then you can use the `get_instance` tool to check the value of the IAM database authentication flag for the instance. If you receive errors like "The instance doesn't allow using executeSql to access this instance", then you can use `get_instance` tool to check the `data_api_access` setting. When you receive authentication errors: 1. Check if the currently logged-in user account exists as an IAM user on the instance using the `list_users` tool. 2. If the IAM user account doesn't exist, then use the `create_user` tool to create the IAM user account for the logged-in user. 3. If the currently logged in user doesn't have the proper database user roles, then you can use `update_user` tool to grant database roles to the user. For example, `cloudsqlsuperuser` role can provide an IAM user with many required permissions. 4. Check if the currently logged in user has the correct IAM permissions assigned for the project. You can use `gcloud projects get-iam-policy [PROJECT_ID]` command to check if the user has the proper IAM roles or permissions assigned for the project. * The user must have `cloudsql.instance.login` permission to do automatic IAM database authentication. * The user must have `cloudsql.instances.executeSql` permission to execute SQL statements using the `execute_sql_readonly` tool or `executeSql` API. * Common IAM roles that contain the required permissions: Cloud SQL Instance User (`roles/cloudsql.instanceUser`) or Cloud SQL Admin (`roles/cloudsql.admin`) When receiving an `ExecuteSqlResponse`, always check the `message` and `status` fields within the response body. A successful HTTP status code doesn't guarantee full success of all SQL statements. The `message` and `status` fields will indicate if there were any partial errors or warnings during SQL statement execution.
