Creates an App Engine application for a Google Cloud Platform project. Required fields: id - The ID of the target Cloud Platform project. location - The region (https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/locations) where you want the App Engine application located.For more information about App Engine applications, see Managing Projects, Applications, and Billing (https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/console/).

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: appengine1 --scope <scope> apps create ...

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

Application:
  auth-domain: string
  code-bucket: string
  database-type: string
  default-bucket: string
  default-cookie-expiration: string
  default-hostname: string
  feature-settings:
    split-health-checks: boolean
    use-container-optimized-os: boolean
  gcr-domain: string
  iap:
    enabled: boolean
    oauth2-client-id: string
    oauth2-client-secret: string
    oauth2-client-secret-sha256: string
  id: string
  location-id: string
  name: string
  service-account: string
  serving-status: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r . auth-domain=duo
    • Google Apps authentication domain that controls which users can access this application.Defaults to open access for any Google Account.
  • code-bucket=ipsum
    • Output only. Google Cloud Storage bucket that can be used for storing files associated with this application. This bucket is associated with the application and can be used by the gcloud deployment commands.@OutputOnly
  • database-type=sed
    • The type of the Cloud Firestore or Cloud Datastore database associated with this application.
  • default-bucket=ut
    • Output only. Google Cloud Storage bucket that can be used by this application to store content.@OutputOnly
  • default-cookie-expiration=gubergren
    • Cookie expiration policy for this application.
  • default-hostname=rebum.
    • Output only. Hostname used to reach this application, as resolved by App Engine.@OutputOnly
  • feature-settings split-health-checks=true
    • Boolean value indicating if split health checks should be used instead of the legacy health checks. At an app.yaml level, this means defaulting to 'readiness_check' and 'liveness_check' values instead of 'health_check' ones. Once the legacy 'health_check' behavior is deprecated, and this value is always true, this setting can be removed.

  • use-container-optimized-os=true

    • If true, use Container-Optimized OS (https://cloud.google.com/container-optimized-os/) base image for VMs, rather than a base Debian image.

  • .. gcr-domain=ipsum

    • Output only. The Google Container Registry domain used for storing managed build docker images for this application.
  • iap enabled=true
    • Whether the serving infrastructure will authenticate and authorize all incoming requests.If true, the oauth2_client_id and oauth2_client_secret fields must be non-empty.
  • oauth2-client-id=ea
    • OAuth2 client ID to use for the authentication flow.
  • oauth2-client-secret=dolor
    • OAuth2 client secret to use for the authentication flow.For security reasons, this value cannot be retrieved via the API. Instead, the SHA-256 hash of the value is returned in the oauth2_client_secret_sha256 field.@InputOnly

  • oauth2-client-secret-sha256=lorem

    • Output only. Hex-encoded SHA-256 hash of the client secret.@OutputOnly

  • .. id=eos

    • Identifier of the Application resource. This identifier is equivalent to the project ID of the Google Cloud Platform project where you want to deploy your application. Example: myapp.
  • location-id=labore
    • Location from which this application runs. Application instances run out of the data centers in the specified location, which is also where all of the application's end user content is stored.Defaults to us-central.View the list of supported locations (https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/locations).
  • name=sed
    • Output only. Full path to the Application resource in the API. Example: apps/myapp.@OutputOnly
  • service-account=duo
    • The service account associated with the application. This is the app-level default identity. If no identity provided during create version, Admin API will fallback to this one.
  • serving-status=sed
    • Serving status of this application.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.

  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.

  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.

  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP

  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.

  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.

  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

  • -p quota-user=string
