gcloud alpha compute os-config inventories describe

NAME
gcloud alpha compute os-config inventories describe - describe the inventory data for a Compute Engine VM instance
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha compute os-config inventories describe (INSTANCE : --location=LOCATION) [--endpoint-mode=ENDPOINT_MODE] [--view=VIEW] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA) Describe the inventory data for a Compute Engine VM instance.
EXAMPLES
To describe the inventory of an instance my-instance that has the instance ID 5678 in the current project and location 'us-central1-a', run: 
gcloud alpha compute os-config inventories describe my-instance --location=us-central1-a
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
Compute Engine VM instance resource - Compute Engine VM instance whose inventory data to describe. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the project attribute:

  • provide the argument instance on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --project on the command line;
  • set the property core/project.

This must be specified.

INSTANCE
ID of the Compute Engine VM instance or fully qualified identifier for the Compute Engine VM instance.

To set the instance attribute:

  • provide the argument instance on the command line.

This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--location=LOCATION
Location of the Compute Engine VM instance. To set the location attribute:
  • provide the argument instance on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --location on the command line;
  • set the property compute/zone.
FLAGS
--endpoint-mode=ENDPOINT_MODE
Specifies endpoint mode for a given command. Regional endpoints provide enhanced data residency and reliability by ensuring your request is handled entirely within the specified Google Cloud region. This differs from global endpoints, which may process parts of the request outside the target region. Overrides the default regional/endpoint_mode property value for this command invocation. ENDPOINT_MODE must be one of:
global
(Default) Use global rather than regional endpoints.
regional
Only use regional endpoints. An error will be raised if a regional endpoint is not available for a given command.
regional-preferred
Use regional endpoints when available, otherwise use global endpoints. Recommended for most users.
--view=VIEW
Specifies what information should be included in the output. If unspecified, the default view is basic. VIEW must be one of:
basic
Output is limited to operating system details.
full
Output includes operating system details and package information.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

Run $ gcloud help for details.

API REFERENCE
This command uses the osconfig/v1alpha API. The full documentation for this API can be found at: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/osconfig/rest
REGIONAL ENDPOINTS
This command supports regional endpoints. To use regional endpoints for this command, use the --endpoint-mode=regional-preferred flag. To use regional endpoints by default, run $ gcloud config set regional/endpoint_mode regional-preferred.
NOTES
This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist. This variant is also available:
