    • Cloud SQL Instance Connection Name: <project-id>:<region>:<instance-name>

    • IAM Database User: <sa-name>

    • IAM Service Account: <sa-name>@<project-id>.iam.gserviceaccount.com

    Note

    • Do not include the host or port in the JDBC Url. The host is resolved from the Cloud SQL Instance Connection Name.
    • IAM Service Account is the service account to be impersonated. Leave it blank to connect using the service account of the Discovery and Portal pods.
    • No database password or JDBC driver class is required, as the connector uses IAM database authentication.

  7. Select SAVE.

You can start using the connector to scan GCP Cloud SQL MySQL resources by configuring the targets to be scanned. Refer to Setup for Discovery Scanning for more information.
