Install Google Cloud CLI on Ubuntu

Before you begin​

Before you install the gcloud CLI, make sure that your operating system meets the following requirements:

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates gnupg

Installation​

  1. Add the gcloud CLI distribution URI as a package source. If your distribution supports the signed-by option, run the following command:
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg] https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list
  • If your distribution doesn’t support the signed-by option, run the following command:
echo "deb https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list
  1. Import the Google Cloud public key. If your distribution’s apt-key command supports the --keyring argument, run the following command:
curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add -
  1. Update and install the gcloud CLI:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-cli
