This page describes how to get, list, and delete instance templates.

• If you haven't already, then set up authentication. Authentication is the process by which your identity is verified for access to Google Cloud services and APIs. To run code or samples from a local development environment, you can authenticate to Compute Engine by selecting one of the following options:

  Select the tab for how you plan to use the samples on this page:

  Console

  When you use the Google Cloud console to access Google Cloud services and APIs, you don't need to set up authentication.

  gcloud

  1. Install the Google Cloud CLI. After installation, initialize the Google Cloud CLI by running the following command:

     gcloud init

     If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

     Note: If you installed the gcloud CLI previously, make sure you have the latest version by running gcloud components update.
  2. Set a default region and zone.
  Go

  To use the Go samples on this page in a local development environment, install and initialize the gcloud CLI, and then set up Application Default Credentials with your user credentials.

  Install the Google Cloud CLI.

  If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  Note: If you installed the gcloud CLI previously, make sure you have the latest version by running gcloud components update.

  If you're using a local shell, then create local authentication credentials for your user account:

  gcloud auth application-default login

  You don't need to do this if you're using Cloud Shell.

  If an authentication error is returned, and you are using an external identity provider (IdP), confirm that you have signed in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  For more information, see Set up authentication for a local development environment.

  Java

  To use the Java samples on this page in a local development environment, install and initialize the gcloud CLI, and then set up Application Default Credentials with your user credentials.

  Install the Google Cloud CLI.

  If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  Note: If you installed the gcloud CLI previously, make sure you have the latest version by running gcloud components update.

  If you're using a local shell, then create local authentication credentials for your user account:

  gcloud auth application-default login

  You don't need to do this if you're using Cloud Shell.

  If an authentication error is returned, and you are using an external identity provider (IdP), confirm that you have signed in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  For more information, see Set up authentication for a local development environment.

  Node.js

  To use the Node.js samples on this page in a local development environment, install and initialize the gcloud CLI, and then set up Application Default Credentials with your user credentials.

  Install the Google Cloud CLI.

  If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  Note: If you installed the gcloud CLI previously, make sure you have the latest version by running gcloud components update.

  If you're using a local shell, then create local authentication credentials for your user account:

  gcloud auth application-default login

  You don't need to do this if you're using Cloud Shell.

  If an authentication error is returned, and you are using an external identity provider (IdP), confirm that you have signed in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  For more information, see Set up authentication for a local development environment.

  Python

  To use the Python samples on this page in a local development environment, install and initialize the gcloud CLI, and then set up Application Default Credentials with your user credentials.

  Install the Google Cloud CLI.

  If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  Note: If you installed the gcloud CLI previously, make sure you have the latest version by running gcloud components update.

  If you're using a local shell, then create local authentication credentials for your user account:

  gcloud auth application-default login

  You don't need to do this if you're using Cloud Shell.

  If an authentication error is returned, and you are using an external identity provider (IdP), confirm that you have signed in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  For more information, see Set up authentication for a local development environment.

  REST

  To use the REST API samples on this page in a local development environment, you use the credentials you provide to the gcloud CLI.

  Install the Google Cloud CLI.

  If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  For more information, see Authenticate for using REST in the Google Cloud authentication documentation.

When you view an existing instance template, you can see its name, unique ID, creation timestamp, and all the instance properties that it specifies.

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Instance Templates page.

   Go to the Instance templates page

2. Click the name of the instance template to see the details of the template.

To get information about a regional or a global instance template, use the instance-templates describe command.

For a regional instance template, use the following command:

gcloud compute instance-templates describe INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME_OR_ID \
    --region=REGION

For a global instance template, use the following command:

gcloud compute instance-templates describe INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME_OR_ID

To get information about a regional instance template, use the regionInstanceTemplates.get method as follows:

GET https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/regions/REGION/instanceTemplates/INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME_OR_ID

To get information about a global instance template, use the instanceTemplates.get method as follows:

GET https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/[PROJECT_ID]/global/instanceTemplates/[INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME_OR_ID]

To get a list of instance templates you created:

The Instance Templates page lists all of the instance templates in your project.

Go to the Instance Templates page

To get a list of all regional instance templates, use the following command:

gcloud compute instance-templates list \
    --regions

To get a list of regional instance templates in a specific region, use the following command:

gcloud compute instance-templates list \
    --filter="region:(REGION)"

To get a list of global instance templates, use the following command:

gcloud compute instance-templates list \
    --global

To get a list of all instance templates, including the regional and global, use the following command:

gcloud compute instance-templates list

To get a list of regional instance templates, make a regionInstanceTemplates.list request:

GET https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/PROJECT/regions/REGION/instanceTemplates

To get a list of global instance templates, make a instanceTemplates.list request:

GET https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/global/instanceTemplates

Deleting an instance template removes it from your list of templates. You cannot delete an instance template if a managed instance group references it.

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Instance Templates page.

   Go to the Instance Templates page

2. Select the instance templates you want to delete.
3. Click Delete.

Using the Google Cloud CLI, run:

gcloud compute instance-templates delete INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME

For a regional instance template, INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME must contain the full URL of the template. For example, https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/example-project/regions/us-central1/instanceTemplates/example-regional-instance-template.

To delete a regional instance template, make a regionInstanceTemplates.delete request:

DELETE https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/regions/REGION/instanceTemplates/INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME

To delete a global instance template, make a instanceTemplates.delete request:

DELETE https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/global/instanceTemplates/INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME

Sometimes the VMs in a managed instance group can be out of sync with the rest of the group, and use a different instance template than the rest of the group. If a VM in a managed instance group uses a different template than what is specified on the group, that VM will continue to use its template for repair even if that template is deleted. For more information about applying a new instance template, see Applying new configurations to VMs in a MIG.
