NAME
    gcloud sql connect - connects to a Cloud SQL instance

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud sql connect INSTANCE [--database=DATABASE, -d DATABASE]
        [--user=USER, -u USER] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    Connects to a Cloud SQL instance.

    This command temporarily changes the authorized networks for this instance
    to allow the connection from your IP address.

    This command isn't supported for Cloud SQL instances with only private IP
    addresses.

    NOTE: If you're connecting from an IPv6 address, or are constrained by
    certain organization policies (restrictPublicIP,
    restrictAuthorizedNetworks), consider running the beta version of this
    command to avoid error by connecting through the Cloud SQL proxy: gcloud
    beta sql connect

        $ gcloud sql connect my-instance --user=root

FLAGS
