Manage migration jobs using the API

MySQL | PostgreSQL | PostgreSQL to AlloyDB

Overview

In this page, you learn how to use the Database Migration Service API to manage migration jobs for an AlloyDB destination database.

There are two ways that you can use the Database Migration Service API. You can make REST API calls or you can use the Google Cloud CLI (CLI).

Create a draft of a migration job

The following shows a request to create a migration job in draft mode. This way, you don't have to create the migration job all at once. You can create a portion of it, and then update it by using the PATCH operation.

For example, if you want to create a migration job, but you don't have the destination database or the network connectivity method, you can use the following code:

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

project-id : The project ID
region : The project region
migration-job-id : The migration job ID
migration-job-name : The migration job name
source-connection-profile-id : The source connection profile ID
destination-connection-profile-id : The destination connection profile ID

HTTP method and URL:

POST https://datamigration.googleapis.com/v1/projects/ project-id 
/locations/ region 
/migrationJobs?migrationJobId= migration-job-id

Request JSON body:

{
  "displayName": " migration-job-name 
",
  "state": "DRAFT",
  "type": "CONTINUOUS",
  "source": "projects/ project-id 
/locations/ region 
/connectionProfiles/ source-connection-profile-id 
",
  //"destination":"projects/ project-id 
/locations/ region 
/connectionProfiles/ destination-connection-profile-id 
",
  
  "sourceDatabase": {
    "engine": "POSTGRESQL"
  },
  
  //"vpcPeeringConnectivity": {
  //"vpc": "default"
  //}
}

To send your request, expand one of these options:

curl (Linux, macOS, or Cloud Shell)

Note: The following command assumes that you have logged in to the gcloud CLI with your user account by running gcloud init or gcloud auth login , or by using Cloud Shell , which automatically logs you into the gcloud CLI . You can check the currently active account by running gcloud auth list .

Save the request body in a file named request.json , and execute the following command:

curl -X POST \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \

List migration jobs

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

project-id : The project ID
region : The project region

You can also filter the list of migration jobs that Database Migration Service retrieves, as follows:

orderBy: Use this filter to retrieve a listing of all migration jobs for a particular region in alphabetical order. For example, the orderBy=name filter returns all migration jobs, alphabetically, by name.
pageSize: Use this filter to specify the maximum number of migration jobs that Database Migration Service retrieves and displays on a page. For example, by setting pageSize=10 , Database Migration Service will return up to 10 migration jobs for a page.

If there are more than 10 migration jobs, then they appear on other pages. At the end of each page, a nextPageToken parameter and a unique identifier appear (for example, oasndfoasdnoasun1241243ojsandf ). Use the identifier to retrieve the listing of the migration jobs for the following page. On the final page, the nextPageToken parameter and unique identifier don't appear.
