3. On the Create a connection profile page, from the Profile role list, select Destination.
4. From the Database engine list, select Cloud SQL for SQL Server.
5. Supply the following information for your connection profile:
   • Connection profile name
   • Connection profile ID
   • Region
   • Migration database username and password

   For more information on these fields, see Connection profiles overview.

6. Optional: In the Test connection profile section, click Run test.

   The Connection profiles page appears, and the newly created connection profile is displayed.

gcloud

This sample uses the optional --no-async flag so that all operations are performed synchronously. This means that some commands might take a while to complete. You can skip the --no-async flag to run commands asynchronously. If you do, you need to use the gcloud database-migration operations describe command to verify if your operation is successful.

Before using any of the command data below, make the following replacements:

• CONNECTION_PROFILE_ID with a machine-readable identifier for your connection profile.
• REGION with the identifier of the region where you want to save the connection profile.
• CONNECTION_PROFILE_NAME with a human-readable name for your connection profile. This value is displayed in Database Migration Service in the Google Cloud console.
• CLOUDSQL_INSTANCE_ID with the instance identifier of your destination Cloud SQL for SQL Server instance. For information on how to view Cloud SQL instance details, see View instance information in the Cloud SQL documentation.
• Migration user details: Provide the details for the dedicated database user account in your destination instance. For more information on this user account, see Create and configure the Cloud SQL for SQL Server destination instance.
  • CLOUD_SQL_DB_USERNAME with the migration user name.
  • CLOUD_SQL_DB_USER_PASSWORD with the password for the migration account.

Execute the following command:

gcloud database-migration connection-profiles \
create sqlserver CONNECTION_PROFILE_ID \
  --no-async
  --display-name=CONNECTION_PROFILE_NAME \
  --cloudsql-instance=CLOUDSQL_INSTANCE_ID \
  --region=REGION \
  --username=CLOUD_SQL_DB_USERNAME
  --password=CLOUD_SQL_DB_USER_PASSWORD

gcloud database-migration connection-profiles `
create sqlserver CONNECTION_PROFILE_ID `
  --no-async
  --display-name=CONNECTION_PROFILE_NAME `
  --cloudsql-instance=CLOUDSQL_INSTANCE_ID `
  --region=REGION `
  --username=CLOUD_SQL_DB_USERNAME
  --password=CLOUD_SQL_DB_USER_PASSWORD

gcloud database-migration connection-profiles ^
create sqlserver CONNECTION_PROFILE_ID ^
  --no-async
  --display-name=CONNECTION_PROFILE_NAME ^
  --cloudsql-instance=CLOUDSQL_INSTANCE_ID ^
  --region=REGION ^
  --username=CLOUD_SQL_DB_USERNAME
  --password=CLOUD_SQL_DB_USER_PASSWORD

You should receive a response similar to the following:

Waiting for connection profile [CONNECTION_PROFILE_ID]
to be created with [OPERATION_ID]

Waiting for operation [OPERATION_ID] to complete...done.

Created connection profile CONNECTION_PROFILE_ID [OPERATION_ID]
