DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA) Create a new Looker instance.

This command can fail for the following reasons:

  • An instance with the same name already exists.
  • The active account does not have permission to create instances.
  • --async flag is not passed
EXAMPLES
To create a basic tier instance with the name my-looker-instance in region us-central-1 with an edition of LOOKER_CORE_STANDARD, run:
gcloud alpha looker instances create my-looker-instance --region=us-central1 --edition="core-standard" --oauth-client-id='looker' --oauth-client-secret='looker' --async

Note: It is recommended that the --async argument is provided when creating a Looker instance.
