Hello again! So, I tried [https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/self-hosted-database-proxies](https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/self-hosted-database-proxies) and don’t see the BigQuery available for proxying: ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/observablehq/original/2X/c/cafe28ad085db6d38c6b538ee908c0e80585b465.png) Is this a bug or have not been implemented yet? Thanks! ---

Hello! tl;dr it hasn’t be implemented yet. This is likely a prioritization oversight on our part. We had initially implemented the self-hosted database proxy to help with primarily databases behind firewalls and since BigQuery is inherently never behind a firewall, hadn’t initially added support for it. I agree it should probably be there since adding Snowflake, but it’ll take a some work to get it in. I can look into adding it, but can’t make any concrete promises around timing. ---
