4. In Cloud Shell, run the following command to determine whether the Service Networking API and the Service Management API are enabled in your project:

   If the APIs are not listed in the output, then they are not enabled.

5. If the Service Networking API and the Service Management API are not already enabled, then run the following commands in Cloud Shell to enable them:

       gcloud --project=my-cvs-prj services enable servicenetworking.googleapis.com
       gcloud --project=my-cvs-prj services enable servicemanagement.googleapis.com
