gcloud beta init - initialize or reinitialize gcloud

gcloud beta init [--no-browser] [--console-only, --no-launch-browser] [--skip-diagnostics] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]

• Authorizes gcloud and other SDK tools to access Google Cloud using your user account credentials, or from an account of your choosing whose credentials are already available.
• Sets up a new or existing configuration.
• Sets properties in that configuration, including the current project and optionally, the default Google Compute Engine region and zone you'd like to use.

gcloud beta init can be used for initial setup of gcloud and to create new or reinitialize gcloud configurations. More information about configurations can be found by running gcloud topic configurations.

Properties set by gcloud beta init are local and persistent, and are not affected by remote changes to the project. For example, the default Compute Engine zone in your configuration remains stable, even if you or another user changes the project-level default zone in the Cloud Platform Console.

To sync the configuration, re-run gcloud beta init.
