What can you do with the Google Cloud SQL integration?

LiveContext exposes 30 operations on Google Cloud SQL, covering instance, backup run, database and user. Common uses include automate instance management, automate user management and automate database management.

Which OAuth scopes does Google Cloud SQL require?

The operations that declare a scope all need https://www.googleapis.com/auth/sqlservice.admin.

What you can do with Google Cloud SQL

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Instance, 11 operations

POSTclone_instance
Creates a Cloud SQL instance as a clone of the source instance. Using this operation might cause your instance to restart
POSTcreate_instance
Creates a new Cloud SQL instance
DELETEdelete_instance
Deletes a Cloud SQL instance. Delete instance.
POSTexport_instance
Exports data from a Cloud SQL instance to a Cloud Storage bucket as a SQL dump or CSV file
POSTfailover_instance
Initiates a manual SQL Server Availability Group failover of the primary instance to a standby instance
GETget_instance
Retrieves a resource containing information about a Cloud SQL instance
POSTimport_instance
Imports data into a Cloud SQL instance from a SQL dump or CSV file in Cloud Storage
GETlist_instances
Lists Cloud SQL instances in a Google Cloud project
PATCHpatch_instance
Partially updates settings of a Cloud SQL instance in the request body using patch semantics
POSTrestart_instance
Restarts a Cloud SQL instance. Restart instance.
PUTupdate_instance
Updates settings of a Cloud SQL instance (replaces entire resource)

Backup run, 4 operations

POSTcreate_backup_run
Creates a new backup run on demand
DELETEdelete_backup_run
Deletes the backup taken by a backup run
GETget_backup_run

Lists all backup runs associated with the project or a given instance and configuration in the reverse chronological order of the backup initiation time

Database, 4 operations

POSTcreate_database
Inserts a resource containing information about a database inside a Cloud SQL instance
DELETEdelete_database

GETget_database
Retrieves a resource containing information about a database inside a Cloud SQL instance

Operation, 3 operations

POSTcancel_operation
Cancels an instance operation that has not yet started
GETget_operation
Retrieves an instance operation that has been performed on a Cloud SQL instance
GETlist_operations
Lists all instance operations that have been performed on Cloud SQL instances in a project

Replica, 3 operations

POSTpromote_replica
Promotes the read replica instance to be a stand-alone Cloud SQL instance
POSTstart_replica
Starts the replication in the read replica instance
POSTstop_replica
Stops the replication in the read replica instance

Backup, 1 operation

POSTrestore_backup
Restores a backup of a Cloud SQL instance. Using this operation might cause your instance to restart

OAuth scopes Google Cloud SQL requires

Each operation declares the scopes Google Cloud SQL requires for it.

Use Google Cloud SQL from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Google Cloud SQL in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Google Cloud SQL operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set up the MCP server step by step

How to connect Google Cloud SQL

Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
Connect Google Cloud SQL once
Add your Google Cloud SQL connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
