gcloud alpha spanner samples run - run the given Cloud Spanner sample app
gcloud alpha spanner samples run APPNAME --instance-id=INSTANCE_ID [--no-cleanup] [--database-id=DATABASE_ID] [--duration=DURATION; default="1h"] [--skip-init] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
(ALPHA) Each Cloud Spanner sample application includes a backend gRPC service backed by a Cloud Spanner database and a workload script that generates service traffic. This command creates and initializes the Cloud Spanner database and runs both the backend service and workload script.
These sample apps are open source and available at https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/cloud-spanner-samples.
To see a list of available sample apps, run:
$ gcloud alpha spanner samples list
To run the 'finance' sample app using instance 'my-instance', run:
$ gcloud alpha spanner samples run finance --instance-id=my-instance
- APPNAME
The sample app name, e.g. "finance".
- --instance-id=INSTANCE_ID
The Cloud Spanner instance ID for the sample app.
- --cleanup
Delete the instance after running the sample app. Enabled by default, use --no-cleanup to disable.
- --database-id=DATABASE_ID
ID of the new Cloud Spanner database to create for the sample app.
- --duration=DURATION; default="1h"
Duration of time allowed to run the sample app before stopping the service.
- --skip-init
Use an existing database instead of creating a new one.
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.

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:
