gcloud alpha compute forwarding-rules import - import a forwarding rule
gcloud alpha compute forwarding-rules import NAME [--source=SOURCE] [--global | --region=REGION] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
(ALPHA) Imports a forwarding rule's configuration from a file.
Import a forwarding rule by running:
$ gcloud alpha compute forwarding-rules import NAME \ --source=<path-to-file>
- NAME
Name of the forwarding rule to import.
- --source=SOURCE
Path to a YAML file containing configuration export data. Alternatively, you may omit this flag to read from standard input.For a schema describing the export/import format, see: $CLOUDSDKROOT/lib/googlecloudsdk/schemas/compute/alpha/ForwardingRule.yaml.
Note: $CLOUDSDKROOT represents the Google Cloud CLI's installation directory.
- At most one of these can be specified:
- --global
If set, the forwarding rule is global.
- --region=REGION
Region of the forwarding rule to import. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).
To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/region property:
$ gcloud config set compute/region REGION
A list of regions can be fetched by running:
$ gcloud compute regions list
To unset the property, run:
$ gcloud config unset compute/region
Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION.
These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.
Run $ gcloud help for details.
This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist. These variants are also available:
$ gcloud compute forwarding-rules import
$ gcloud beta compute forwarding-rules import
