\f5gcloud compute operations describe\fR \fINAME\fR [\fB\-\-global\fR\ |\ \fB\-\-region\fR=\fIREGION\fR\ |\ \fB\-\-zone\fR=\fIZONE\fR] [\fIGCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG\ ...\fR]



.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fBgcloud compute operations describe\fR displays all data associated with a
Compute Engine operation in a project.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To get details about a global operation (e.g. operation\-111\-222\-333\-444),
run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud compute operations describe operation\-111\-222\-333\-444 \e
    \-\-global
.RE

To get details about a regional operation, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud compute operations describe operation\-111\-222\-333\-444 \e
    \-\-region=us\-central1
.RE

To get details about a zonal operation, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud compute operations describe operation\-111\-222\-333\-444 \e
    \-\-zone=us\-central1\-a
.RE



.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

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

Name of the operation returned by an asynchronous command. Use \f5gcloud compute
operations list\fR to display recent operations.

.SH "FLAGS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m

At most one of these can be specified:


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

If set, the operation is global.

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

Region of the operation to describe. Overrides the default \fBcompute/region\fR
property value for this command invocation.

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-zone\fR=\fIZONE\fR

Zone of the operation to describe. Overrides the default \fBcompute/zone\fR
property value for this command invocation.
