.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(ALPHA)\fR \fBgcloud alpha compute ssl\-certificates describe\fR displays all
data (except private keys) associated with Compute Engine SSL certificate
resources in a project.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To display a description of a certificate 'my\-cert', run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute ssl\-certificates describe my\-cert
.RE



.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fINAME\fR

Name of the SSL certificate to describe.


.RE
.sp

.SH "FLAGS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m

At most one of these can be specified:


.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fB\-\-global\fR

(Default) If set, the SSL certificate is global.

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-region\fR=\fIREGION\fR

Region of the SSL certificate to describe. If not specified, you might be
prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the
\f5\fIcompute/region\fR\fR property:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud config set compute/region REGION
.RE

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud compute regions list
.RE

To unset the property, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud config unset compute/region
.RE

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable
\f5\fICLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION\fR\fR.
