Fields
kind

string

[Output Only] The type of the resource. Always

compute#machineType

for machine types.
id

string (uint64 format)

[Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
creationTimestamp

string

[Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
name

string

[Output Only] Name of the resource.
description

string

[Output Only] An optional textual description of the resource.
guestCpus

integer

[Output Only] The number of virtual CPUs that are available to the instance.
memoryMb

integer

[Output Only] The amount of physical memory available to the instance, defined in MB.
imageSpaceGb

integer

[Deprecated] This property is deprecated and will never be populated with any relevant values.
scratchDisks[]

object

[Output Only] A list of extended scratch disks assigned to the instance.
scratchDisks[].diskGb

integer

Size of the scratch disk, defined in GB.
maximumPersistentDisks

integer

[Output Only] Maximum persistent disks allowed.
maximumPersistentDisksSizeGb

string (int64 format)

[Output Only] Maximum total persistent disks size (GB) allowed.
deprecated

object (DeprecationStatus)

[Output Only] The deprecation status associated with this machine type. Only applicable if the machine type is unavailable.
zone

string

[Output Only] The name of the zone where the machine type resides, such as us-central1-a.
isSharedCpu

boolean

[Output Only] Whether this machine type has a shared CPU. See Shared-core machine types for more information.
accelerators[]

object

[Output Only] A list of accelerator configurations assigned to this machine type.
accelerators[].guestAcceleratorType

string

The accelerator type resource name, not a full URL, e.g.

nvidia-tesla-t4

.
accelerators[].guestAcceleratorCount

integer

Number of accelerator cards exposed to the guest.
architecture

enum (Architecture)

[Output Only] The architecture of the machine type.
