## Access BigQuery data

When using **BigQuery Studio (BQ Studio)** to access the BigQuery warehouse hosted by Erathos, the email you use within Erathos must be a **Google account email**. If you already have another Google account, you can add that email as a user — see the section on inviting users below for details.

Alternatively, you can connect programmatically using a **service account JSON key**:

1. **Via BQ Studio (Web UI):**
   * Make sure the Erathos email is a valid Google account.
   * If you use a different Google account, you can **invite that email** as a user—this allows access via BQ Studio using the invited account.
2. **Via Service Account (JSON Key):**

   * Navigate to the **“Destinations”** section under **Settings**.
   * In the general configuration of your workspace, go to **destination** and **download the service account JSON key file**.
