Listing Services

This page describes how to list the APIs and services that are enabled or available in a Google Cloud project. The list of available or enabled APIs and services can contain both public Google Cloud services such as Pub/Sub, and any APIs and services shared privately with you, such as services created using Cloud Endpoints. For more information on the differences between public and private APIs and services, see Public and Private Services.

For most operational use cases, the simplest way to list services is to use Google Cloud Console. If you need to create scripts, you can also use the gcloud command-line tool. If you need to program against the Service Usage API, we recommend that you use one of our provided client libraries. To experiment with the API, you can follow the alternative instructions in this guide and use the curl command to test the API without setting up a full application development environment.

Before you begin

To list the enabled and available APIs and services you need:

  • A Cloud project. To learn how to create a Cloud project, see Creating and Managing Projects.
  • The correct Identity and Access Management permissions. To learn about the IAM requirements for Service Usage, see Access Control.
  • If you want to run the gcloud tool examples in this guide, you need to install the Cloud SDK.
  • If you want to use the curl examples in this guide, make sure you follow the instructions to complete the initial setup in Getting Started. These steps include defining gcurl, which is an authenticated alias for the standard curl command, and defining the environment variable PROJECT_NUMBER.

Listing available services

console

To list the APIs and services available to you in a project:

  1. Go to the Cloud Console API Library page.
    Go to the API Library page

  2. Select your Cloud project by performing one of the following:

    • Click on a Cloud project under Select a recent project.

    • Use the Cloud project browser by performing the following steps:

      1. Click Select project to open the Cloud project browser.
      2. Find your project and then click on the Cloud project name.
      3. Click Open to open the project.

    The API Library screen appears. You can search for or scroll through available APIs from this screen.

gcloud

Run the following command to list the APIs and services available to you in your current project:

gcloud services list --available

The results include any services that have already been enabled, as well as services that are available to be enabled for the current project. The command produces output similar to the following:

NAME                                              TITLE
places-backend.googleapis.com                  Google Places API Web Service
clouderrorreporting.googleapis.com             Stackdriver Error Reporting API
analyticsreporting.googleapis.com              Google Analytics Reporting API
youtube.googleapis.com                         YouTube Data API v3
adsense.googleapis.com                         AdSense Management API
sqladmin.googleapis.com                        Google Cloud SQL API
genomics.googleapis.com                        Genomics API
adexchangebuyer.googleapis.com                 Ad Exchange Buyer API II
...

curl

To list available services, call the services.list method.

Run the following command to list the available APIs and services in your project:

gcurl "https://serviceusage.googleapis.com/v1/projects/${PROJECT_NUMBER}/services"

The result includes all public services, all services for which the calling user has the servicemanagement.services.bind permission, and all services that have already been enabled on the project.

Listing enabled services

console

To list the enabled APIs and services in a project:

  1. Go to the Cloud Console API Dashboard page.
    go to the API Dashboard page

  2. Select your Cloud project by performing one of the following:

    • Click on a Cloud project under Select a recent project.

    • Use the Cloud project browser by performing the following steps:

      1. Click Select project to open the Cloud project browser.
      2. Find your project and then click on the Cloud project name.
      3. Click Open to open the project.

    The APIs & Services page appears. You can find the list of APIs enabled in your Cloud project in the table on this page.

gcloud

Run the following command to list the enabled APIs and services in your current project:

gcloud services list

The command produces output similar to the following:

NAME                                              TITLE
pubsub.googleapis.com             Google Cloud Pub/Sub API

logging.googleapis.com            Stackdriver Logging API
clouddebugger.googleapis.com      Stackdriver Debugger API
...

curl

To list enabled services, call the services.list method with the state:ENABLED filter.

Run the following command to list the enabled APIs and services in your project:

gcurl "https://serviceusage.googleapis.com/v1/projects/${PROJECT_NUMBER}/services?filter=state:ENABLED"

Listing disabled services

To list disabled services, call the services.list method with the state:DISABLED filter.

Run the following command to list the disabled APIs and services in your project:

gcurl "https://serviceusage.googleapis.com/v1/projects/${PROJECT_NUMBER}/services?filter=state:DISABLED"
