Assign static IP to GCP SQL instance

I need to assign a static IP to a SQL replica database instance, so that I can delete and recreate it with the same IP address. I dont see any way to do this. Can this be done for SQL, or only for Google Compute Engine instances?

Correct, But you can assign static IP to a Compute Engine Instance and setup your SQL replica over that machine. And when you've given proper rights in the SQL Roles you'd be able to drop/create the database over the same machine with same IP.

As of today it’s not possible to assign a static IP to a Cloud SQL instance as it is for GCE. When you create an instance, a random IP is assigned and when you delete the instance that IP is released. Also, the deleted instance name can’t be reused for up to a week according to the documentation
