sourceDiskId: '1234567891234567890'
status: READY
storageBytes: '0'
storageBytesStatus: UP_TO_DATE
EXAMPLES
To run gcloud alpha compute snapshots describe, you'll need the name of a snapshot. To list existing snapshots by name, run:
gcloud alpha compute snapshots list

To display specific details of an existing Compute Engine snapshot (like its creation time, status, and storage details), run:

gcloud alpha compute snapshots describe SNAPSHOT_NAME --format="table(creationTimestamp, status, storageBytesStatus)"
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

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:
