Create a new database by restoring from a completed backup. The new database must be in the same project and in an instance with the same instance configuration as the instance containing the backup. The returned database long-running operation
has a name of the format projects/<project>/instances/<instance>/databases/<database>/operations/<operationId>
, and can be used to track the progress of the operation, and to cancel it. The metadata
field type is RestoreDatabaseMetadata
. The response
type is Database
, if successful. Cancelling the returned operation will stop the restore and delete the database. There can be only one database being restored into an instance at a time. Once the restore operation completes, a new restore operation can be initiated, without waiting for the optimize operation associated with the first restore to complete.
