You have just installed the Google Cloud SDK on your local machine. You want to authenticate, set your default project to 'my-company-prod', and set your default compute zone to 'us-central1-a' in a single interactive process.

Which command should you run?

Answer options:

gcloud auth login

D.

gcloud setup

How to approach this question

Identify the command used for initial, interactive setup of the Cloud SDK.

Full Answer

C.gcloud init✓ Correct
gcloud init
`gcloud init` performs several setup tasks: it authorizes the SDK to access GCP using your user account, sets up a default configuration, and prompts you to select a default project and default Compute Engine zone/region.

Common mistakes

Selecting `gcloud auth login`, which skips the project and zone configuration steps.
