DESCRIPTION

Use an oauth2 refresh token to manufacture credentials for Google APIs. This token must have been acquired via some legitimate means to work. The account provided is only used locally to help the Cloud SDK keep track of the new credentials, so you can activate, list, and revoke the credentials in the future.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

ACCOUNT

The account to associate with the refresh token.

[TOKEN]

OAuth2 refresh token. If blank, prompt for value.

FLAGS

--format FORMAT

--help

Display detailed help.

--project PROJECT_ID

The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation. If omitted then the current project is assumed.

--quiet, -q

Token used to route traces of service requests for investigation of issues.
