- FLAGS
-
--allow-unauthenticated-cors-preflight-requests
- By default, the workstations service makes sure that all requests to the workstation are authenticated. CORS preflight requests do not include cookies or custom headers, and so are considered unauthenticated and blocked by the workstations service. Enabling this option allows these unauthenticated CORS preflight requests through to the workstation, where it becomes the responsibility of the destination server in the workstation to validate the request
--allowed-ports
=[ALLOWED_PORTS
,…]-
A Single or Range of ports externally accessible in the workstation. If not
specified defaults to ports 22, 80 and ports 1024-65535.
To specify a single port, both first and last should be same.
Example:
gcloud alpha workstations configs create --allowed-ports=first=9000,last=9090
gcloud alpha workstations configs create --allowed-ports=first=80,last=80
Sets
allowed_ports
value.first
-
Required, Sets
first
value. last
-
Required, Sets
last
value.
Shorthand Example:
--allowed-ports=first=int,last=int
JSON Example:
--allowed-ports='{"first": int, "last": int}'
File Example:
--allowed-ports=path_to_file.(yaml|json)
--async
- Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
