This page describes how to edit an existing Cloud SQL instance.
After you create an instance, you can edit it while it's running to change its settings. For information about instance settings and how changing settings can impact an instance, see Instance Settings.
Note: This procedure restarts the instance.You can integrate Cloud SQL for SQL Server with Managed Service for Microsoft Active Directory (Managed Microsoft AD). This integration includes capabilities for joining and leaving a Managed Microsoft AD domain at the per-instance level. For more information, see the Overview of Managed Microsoft AD in Cloud SQL.
You also can enable or disable database auditing.
Note: Before making changes to database auditing, review SQL Server database auditing. Edit an instanceMost edits can be applied to an instance only when it's running.
Note: If you plan to integrate with Managed Service for Microsoft Active Directory, then review the prerequisites for integration. Additionally, note the procedures and constraints for integrating with a managed AD domain in a different project. ConsoleIn the Google Cloud console, go to the Cloud SQL Instances page.
Update any editable settings for your instance.

This command modifies the backup start time.
gcloud sql instances patch INSTANCE_NAME \ --backup-start-time 16:00
If a patch modifies a value that requires a restart, then you see a prompt to proceed with the change or cancel.
To learn more about instance configuration flags, see gcloud sql instances patch.

To see how the underlying REST API request is constructed for this task, see the APIs Explorer on the instances:patch page. Edit an instance with Private Service Connect enabledYou can update an instance with Private Service Connect enabled by using gcloud CLI or the API. For example, you can update projects associated with instances for the following purposes:
To update projects that can use Private Service Connect, use the gcloud sql instances patch
command:
gcloud sql instances patch INSTANCE_NAME \ --project=PROJECT_ID \ --allowed-psc-projects=ALLOWED_PROJECTS
Make the following replacements:
The following example lets two projects (98765
and 87654
) make connections from Private Service Connect endpoints to the myinstance
Cloud SQL instance that's contained in the 12345
project:
gcloud sql instances patch myinstance \ --project=12345 \ --allowed-psc-projects='98765','87654'
To remove all allowed projects, use the gcloud sql instances patch
command and the --clear-allowed-psc-projects
flag:
gcloud sql instances patch INSTANCE_NAME \ --project=PROJECT_ID \ --clear-allowed-psc-projects

If you want to use a custom DNS name to connect to a Cloud SQL instance instead of using an IP address, then configure the custom subject alternative name (SAN) setting while creating the instance. The custom DNS name that you insert into the custom SAN setting is added to the SAN field of the server certificate of the instance. This lets you use the custom DNS name with hostname validation securely.
You can perform the following operations with a custom SAN for a server certificate of an instance:
You can edit a custom SAN for an instance by using gcloud CLI or the API.
Note: This feature is available forCUSTOMER_MANAGED_CAS_CA
instances only. gcloud
To edit a custom SAN for an instance, use the gcloud beta sql instances patch
command:
gcloud beta sql instances patch INSTANCE_NAME \ --project=PROJECT_ID \ --custom-subject-alternative-names=DNS_NAMES
Make the following replacements:
To remove all DNS names from the server certificate of a Cloud SQL instance, use the gcloud beta sql instances patch
command and the --clear-custom-subject-alternative-names
flag:
gcloud beta sql instances patch INSTANCE_NAME \ --project=PROJECT_ID \ --clear-custom-subject-alternative-names
This flag ensures that no DNS names are added to the certificate inadvertently.
RESTBefore using any of the request data, make the following replacements:
DNS_NAMES: a comma-separated list of up to three DNS names that you're adding to the server certificate of your instance.
If you already have DNS names that you added to the certificate, and you use this parameter to specify different DNS names, then Cloud SQL removes the original DNS names from the certificate.
If you don't specify any DNS names for the customSubjectAlternativeNames
parameter, but provide the null []
value instead, then Cloud SQL removes all DNS names from the server certificate of the instance. This ensures that no DNS names are added to the certificate inadvertently.
