Getting access
There are different ways to access the functions and procedures included in the CARTO Analytics Toolbox for BigQuery:
Projects maintained by CARTO in different BigQuery regions: This is the most standard and easy way to get access to the Analytics Toolbox. It provides access to the latest version in all GCP regions.
Manual installation in your own project: This is the option of choice if you need to use a specific version of the Analytics Toolbox, or need to access the functions in a self maintained project.
Installation in a Google Cloud VPC: This option is only suitable for Self Hosted deployments of the CARTO platform that need to access the Analytics Toolbox functions within a VPC.
There is a reduced version of the Analytics Toolbox that contains only core functionality. This version is open source and can be used freely from a BigQuery project maintained by CARTO or installed manually in your own project.
