If you are developing applications that require access to Google Cloud Platform resources, you need to install the Google Cloud SDK. The Google Cloud SDK provides a set of tools and libraries that make it easy to work with Google Cloud Platform services.

One way to tell if you have the Google Cloud SDK installed is to check the following directory on your computer:

C:\Program Files\Google\Cloud SDK\

If the Google Cloud SDK is installed, the directory will contain a number of files and folders, including the following:

PRO TIP: If you are unsure whether or not you have Google Cloud SDK installed on your machine, we recommend checking with your system administrator before proceeding.

GCSDK_VERSION.txt

gcloud.exe

If you don’t have the Google Cloud SDK installed, the directory will contain only the GCSDK_VERSION.txt file.
