:::info Uploading a service account JSON keyfile

While the fields in a BigQuery connection can be specified manually, we recommend uploading a service account <Term id="json" /> keyfile to quickly and accurately configure a connection to BigQuery.
While the fields in a BigQuery connection can be specified manually, we recommend uploading a service account <Term id="json" /> keyfile to quickly and accurately configure a connection to BigQuery.

You can provide the JSON keyfile in one of two formats:

- JSON keyfile upload &mdash; Upload the keyfile directly in its normal JSON format.
- Base64-encoded string &mdash; Provide the keyfile as a base64-encoded string. When you provide a base64-encoded string, dbt decodes it automatically and populates the necessary fields.
