(ALPHA) (DEPRECATED) Exports data from a Cloud SQL instance.
This command is deprecated and will be removed in version 205.0.0. Use gcloud sql export sql instead.
Exports data from a Cloud SQL instance to a Google Cloud Storage bucket as a MySQL dump file.
- INSTANCE
Cloud SQL instance ID.
- URI
The path to the file in Google Cloud Storage where the export will be stored. The URI is in the form gs://bucketName/fileName. If the file already exists, the operation fails. If the filename ends with .gz, the contents are compressed.
- --async
Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
- --database=DATABASE,[DATABASE,...], -d DATABASE,[DATABASE,...]
Database(s) from which the export is made. Information on requirements can be found here: https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql/admin-api/v1beta4/instances/export#exportContext.databases
- --table=TABLE,[TABLE,...], -t TABLE,[TABLE,...]
Tables to export from the specified database. If you specify tables, specify one and only one database. For Postgres instances, only one table can be exported at a time.
These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist. These variants are also available:
$ gcloud sql instances export
$ gcloud beta sql instances export
