- DESCRIPTION
-
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-instancein regionus-central-1with an edition of "LOOKER_CORE_STANDARD", run:gcloud looker instances create my-looker-instance --region=us-central1 --edition="core-standard" --oauth-client-id='looker' --oauth-client-secret='looker' --asyncNote: It is
recommendedthat the--asyncargument is provided when creating a Looker instance. - POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
