gcloud alpha topic uninstall - supplementary help for uninstalling Google Cloud CLI
Note: For installations completed using an OS package (such as apt-get, yum, etc.), uninstall Google Cloud CLI via the OS package manager.
Note: For Windows installations, execute the uninstaller.exe found under your Google Cloud CLI directory.
To completely remove Google Cloud CLI, follow these instructions:
Locate your installation directory by running:
$ gcloud info --format="value(installation.sdk_root)"
Locate your user config directory (typically ~/.config/gcloud on MacOS and Linux) by running:
$ gcloud info --format="value(config.paths.global_config_dir)"
Delete both these directories.
Additionally, remove lines sourcing completion.bash.inc and paths.bash.inc in your .bashrc or equivalent shell init file, if you added them during installation.
Review the contents of the .boto file in your home directory and remove the sections '[GoogleCompute]' and '[GSUtil]'. In addition, review the sections '[OAuth2]' and '[Credentials]' for settings that are no longer needed.
Some systems may have Cache directories such as ~/Library/Caches/ on Mac OS X. Find and delete these directories for your system:
$ find ~/Library/Caches/ -type d -name "google-cloud-sdk" | xargs \ rm -r
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 topic uninstall
$ gcloud beta topic uninstall
