gcloud sql export sql

Export data from a Cloud SQL instance to an SQL file in Google Cloud Storage. Useful for creating backups or migrating data. See also: gcloud. More information: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/sql/export/sql.

• Export data from a specific Cloud SQL instance to a Google Cloud Storage bucket as an SQL dump file:

gcloud sql export sql {{instance}} gs://{{bucket_name}}/{{file_name}}

• Export data asynchronously, returning immediately without waiting for the operation to complete:

gcloud sql export sql {{instance}} gs://{{bucket_name}}/{{file_name}} --async

• Export data from specific databases within the Cloud SQL instance:

gcloud sql export sql {{instance}} gs://{{bucket_name}}/{{file_name}} --database={{database1,database2,...}}

• Export specific tables from a specified database within the Cloud SQL instance:

gcloud sql export sql {{instance}} gs://{{bucket_name}}/{{file_name}} --database={{database}} --table={{table1,table2,...}}

• Export data while offloading the operation to a temporary instance to reduce strain on the source instance:

gcloud sql export sql {{instance}} gs://{{bucket_name}}/{{file_name}} --offload

• Export data and compress the output with gzip:

gcloud sql export sql {{instance}} gs://{{bucket_name}}/{{file_name}}.gz
