CREATE EXTENSION multicorn;

CREATE SERVER bigquery_srv FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER multicorn
OPTIONS (
    wrapper 'bigquery_fdw.fdw.ConstantForeignDataWrapper'
);

CREATE FOREIGN TABLE my_bigquery_table (
    column1 text,
    column2 bigint
) SERVER bigquery_srv
OPTIONS (
    fdw_dataset  'my_dataset',
    fdw_table 'my_table',
    fdw_key '/opt/bigquery_fdw/key.json'
