NAME

gcloud alpha compute snapshots update - update a Compute Engine snapshot

SYNOPSIS

gcloud alpha compute snapshots update SNAPSHOT_NAME [--update-labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]] [--clear-labels | --remove-labels=[KEY,...]] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

(ALPHA) gcloud alpha compute snapshots update updates labels for a Compute Engine snapshot.

EXAMPLES

To update labels k0 and k1 and remove labels with key k3, run:

$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots update example-snapshot \ --update-labels=k0=value1,k1=value2 --remove-labels=k3

`_k0_` and `_k1_` will be added as new labels if not already present.

Labels can be used to identify the snapshot and to filter them like:

$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots list --filter='labels.k1:value2'

To list only the labels when describing a resource, use --format:

$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots describe example-snapshot \ --format="default(labels)"

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

SNAPSHOT_NAME

Name of the snapshot to update.

FLAGS

--update-labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]

List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to update. If a label exists, its value is modified. Otherwise, a new label is created.

Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers.

At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-labels

Remove all labels. If --update-labels is also specified then --clear-labels is applied first.

For example, to remove all labels:

$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots update --clear-labels

To remove all existing labels and create two new labels, foo and baz:

$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots update --clear-labels \ --update-labels foo=bar,baz=qux

--remove-labels=[KEY,...]

List of label keys to remove. If a label does not exist it is silently ignored. If --update-labels is also specified then --update-labels is applied first.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS

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.

NOTES

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 snapshots update

$ gcloud beta compute snapshots update
