Creates a new Cloud SQL instance.

Scopes

You will need authorization for at least one of the following scopes to make a valid call:

• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/sqlservice.admin

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: sqladmin1-beta4 --scope <scope> instances insert ...

Required Scalar Argument

• <project> (string)
  • Project ID of the project to which the newly created Cloud SQL instances should belong.

• .. require-ssl=false

  • Use ssl_mode instead for MySQL and PostgreSQL. SQL Server uses this flag. Whether SSL/TLS connections over IP are enforced. If set to false, then allow both non-SSL/non-TLS and SSL/TLS connections. For SSL/TLS connections, the client certificate won't be verified. If set to true, then only allow connections encrypted with SSL/TLS and with valid client certificates. If you want to enforce SSL/TLS without enforcing the requirement for valid client certificates, then use the ssl_mode flag instead of the legacy require_ssl flag.

• ssl-mode=diam

  • Specify how SSL/TLS is enforced in database connections. MySQL and PostgreSQL use the ssl_mode flag. If you must use the require_ssl flag for backward compatibility, then only the following value pairs are valid: * ssl_mode=ALLOW_UNENCRYPTED_AND_ENCRYPTED and require_ssl=false * ssl_mode=ENCRYPTED_ONLY and require_ssl=false * ssl_mode=TRUSTED_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE_REQUIRED and require_ssl=true The value of ssl_mode gets priority over the value of require_ssl. For example, for the pair ssl_mode=ENCRYPTED_ONLY and require_ssl=false, the ssl_mode=ENCRYPTED_ONLY means only accept SSL connections, while the require_ssl=false means accept both non-SSL and SSL connections. MySQL and PostgreSQL databases respect ssl_mode in this case and accept only SSL connections. SQL Server uses the require_ssl flag. You can set the value for this flag to true or false.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

• The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
• The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
• You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
• You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

• -o out
  • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.
