[Dipak Patil]

HI,

I need help in following scenario-

Customer created a service account on his Google Cloud Project with permissions to connect to relational databases. He also has shared all the credentials required to connect to it using proxy settings.Now, we have to download the DB shared by the customer but we are not much aware about GCP how to download the DB from GCP. Can any one help in solving this issue.

 

Thanks,

Dipak

Hello Dipak, 

Depending on what you want to do exactly, you may consider exporting data to Google Cloud Storage, and from there downloading data locally. You can find related detail on the "Exporting Data from Cloud SQL" documentation page. This assumes that you are able to connect and authenticate to GCP. 

If you describe your use-case in more detail, we'll be happy to help further.
