'How to download a folder to my local PC from Google Cloud console

I have a folder I want to download from Google Cloud Console using the Linux Ubuntu command terminal. I have logged in to my SSH console and so far I can only list the contents of my files as follows.

cd /var/www/html/staging

Now I want to download all the files from that staging folder.

Sorry, if I'm missing the point. Anyway, I came here seeking a way to download files from Google Cloud Console. I didn't have the ability to create an additional bucket as the author above suggested. But I accidently noticed that there is a button for exactly what I needed.

Seek keebab-style menu button. In the appearing dropdown you should find Download button.

If you mean cloud shell, then I typically use the gcp storage tool suite.

In summary, I transfer from cloud shell to gcp storage, then from storage to my workstation.

  1. First, have the Google cloud ask installed on your system.
  2. Make a bucket to transfer it into with gsutil mb gs://MySweetBucket
  3. From within cloud shell, Move the file I to the bucket. gsutil cp /path/to/file gs://MySweetBucket/
  4. On your local system pull the file down. gsutil cp gs://MySweetBucket/filename

Done!
