Hi,

I am trying to generate csv file from cloudsql and place in cloud storage using below query:

select * INTO OUTFILE 'Cloudstorage_path/test.csv'         FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'         LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' from Table limit 10

But I am getting below error:
Error Code: 1227. Access denied; you need (at least one of) the FILE privilege(s) for this operation

Please confirm whether we can use this approach to push data from cloudsql to cloud storage.

Hello,


I understand that you would like to restore data from Cloud SQL to a Cloud Storage bucket but you are receiving Error 1227[1]. I was able to find an explanation indicating that this operation needs a Super User permission[2] that a managed Cloud SQL does not offer at this moment.

I was able to find this document[3], which describes how to generate a CSV from Cloud SQL as an alternative.

Would this be a sufficient workaround for you? I know this must be frustrating not to have technology not behaving as you wish. Please let us know your thoughts.

I would believe that the community may offer further advice or other ways to accomplish what you would like to do in another way in addition to the one I suggested.

Hi Elliot,

Option3 is work around and I want to execute that select command using stored procedure and need to schedule it.

Anyways I got a approach with cloud function and cloud scheduler.

Thanks for the help

Heya, I'm guessing you didn't mean to reply to an existing conversation and meant to start a new one, nevertheless there is documentation for that:
Instructions on how to set up alerts can be found here; but I'm guessing your concern would be more to do with what to monitor specifically, and that depends on the error report given within the logs, which usually includes the metric that is used by the monitoring/alerting systems in the Google Operations Suite (which contains Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Alerts)

Is there any specific instruction that you require further clarification on?
