I'm getting this error:

ERROR: (gcloud.sql.instances.describe) HTTPError 404: The Cloud SQL instance does not exist.

When calling:

gcloud sql instances describe my-project

from my windows cmd within the Google Cloud SDK Shell. However, when I look at my instances on my Google Cloud Platform interface I can see that the corresponding instance. All indicates that it DOES exist. Anyone have a solution?

LundinCast had the right answer in comments. Your problem can be resolved by following the instance name with --project="[projectname]".

Try to run following to list your instances:

gcloud sql instances list
