So that I'm not asked to input a Cloud Run region whenever running a Cloud Run service on Cloud Shell, is it possible to set a default Cloud Run region? If possible, how can I do this?

Answer 1

Yes, it's possible to set a default Cloud Run region with this command below so that you're not asked to input a Cloud Run region whenever running a Cloud Run service on Cloud Shell:

gcloud config set run/region <region>

So, for example, run this command below to set the default Cloud Run region "asia-northeast1" :

gcloud config set run/region asia-northeast1

In addition, you can check your default Cloud Run region with this command below:

gcloud config get run/region

Then, this is the result:

Your active configuration is: [cloudshell-5343] asia-northeast1

And, you can check all configurations including your default Cloud Run region with this command below:

gcloud config list

Then, this is the result:

[accessibility]
screen_reader = True
[component_manager]
disable_update_check = True
[compute]
gce_metadata_read_timeout_sec = 30
[core]
account = [email protected]
disable_usage_reporting = True
project = myproject-383171
[metrics]
environment = devshell
[run]
region = asia-northeast1

Your active configuration is: [cloudshell-5343]

In addition again, you can unset your default Cloud Run region with this command below:

gcloud config unset run/region

Then, check your default Cloud Run region:

gcloud config get run/region

Then, this is the result:

Your active configuration is: [cloudshell-5343] (unset)
