gcloud app instances scp

NAME

gcloud app instances scp - SCP from or to the VM of an App Engine Flexible instance

SYNOPSIS

gcloud app instances scp [INSTANCE:]SRC [[INSTANCE:]SRC …] [INSTANCE:]DEST [--compress] [--recurse] [--service=SERVICE] [--tunnel-through-iap] [--version=VERSION] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]

DESCRIPTION

gcloud app instances scp lets you remotely copy files to or from an App Engine Flexible instance.

gcloud app instances scp resolves the instance's IP address and pre-populates the VM with a public key managed by gcloud. If the gcloud managed key pair does not exist, it is generated the first time an SSH command is run, which may prompt you for a passphrase for the private key encryption.

All SSH commands require the OpenSSH client suite to be installed on Linux and Mac OS X. On Windows, the Google Cloud CLI comes with a bundled PuTTY suite instead, so it has no external dependencies.

EXAMPLES

To copy one file from a remote instance to the local machine, run:

gcloud app instances scp --service=s1 --version=v1 i1:remote_file local_file

To copy several local files to a remote instance, run:

gcloud app instances scp --service=s1 --version=v1 local_1 local_1 i1:remote_dir

To use recursive copy, run:

gcloud app instances scp --service=s1 --version=v1 --recurse local_dir i1:remote_dir
