  • set the property core/project.

This must be specified.

BACKUP

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.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
