Cloud SQL is Google Cloud’s managed database service for PostgreSQL and MySQL. QueryBear connects over the standard wire protocol, giving your AI clients safe, read-only access through QueryBear’s security gateway.

​
Get your Cloud SQL connection details

  1. Open the Cloud SQL instances page.
  2. Select your instance and note the Public IP address and port (5432 Postgres, 3306 MySQL).

​
Allow QueryBear’s IP

Cloud SQL restricts connections by Authorized networks:
  1. Get QueryBear’s egress IP from the dashboard under Connections → Network.
  2. In the Cloud SQL instance → Connections → Networking, add that IP under Authorized networks.
  3. Enable Public IP if not already on.
Prefer not to expose a public IP? You can run the Cloud SQL Auth Proxy on a host you control and point QueryBear’s connector at the proxy. For most read-only analytics setups, an authorized-network public IP with SSL is simpler.

Create a read-only user

​
Add the connection to QueryBear

In the QueryBear dashboard → Connections → New connection, choose PostgreSQL or MySQL, enter the public IP, and set SSL mode require. Cloud SQL supports server-side TLS.

​
Cloud SQL-specific notes

  • Authorized networks: Connections fail silently if QueryBear’s IP isn’t allow-listed. This is the most common setup issue.
  • Read replicas: Cloud SQL read replicas have their own IPs — point QueryBear at a replica to isolate AI load.
  • SSL enforcement: If your instance requires SSL, QueryBear’s require mode satisfies it.
