- 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 regionus-central-1
with an edition ofLOOKER_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

recommended
that the--async
argument is provided when creating a Looker instance. - POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
