- DESCRIPTION
-
gcloud app instances ssh
lets you remotely log in to your running App Engine Flexible instances under two conditions:- The instance is running.
-
The instance has an external IP address. To check from the Cloud Console, go to
the Instances page and confirm that there is an IP address listed in the VM IP
column. To check from your app.yaml, open your app.yaml and look at the network
settings. The
instance_ip_mode
field must be either not listed or set to
.external
gcloud app instances ssh
resolves the instance's IP address and pre-populates the VM with a public key managed by gcloud. If the gcloud managed key pair does not exist, it is generated the first time an SSH command is run, which may prompt you for a passphrase for the private key encryption.All SSH commands require the OpenSSH client suite to be installed on Linux and Mac OS X. On Windows, the Google Cloud CLI comes with a bundled PuTTY suite instead, so it has no external dependencies.
- EXAMPLES
-
To SSH into an App Engine Flexible instance, run:
gcloud app instances ssh --service=s1 --version=v1 i1
To SSH into the app container within an instance, run:
gcloud app instances ssh --service=s1 --version=v1 i1 --container=gaeapp
To SSH into the app container and run a remote command, run:
gcloud app instances ssh --service=s1 --version=v1 i1 --container=gaeapp -- echo hello
