    12  [the official documentation](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances)
    13  and
    14  [API](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/latest/instances).

    20  resource "google_compute_instance" "default" {
    21    name         = "test"

    56  ## Argument Reference
    57  
    58  The following arguments are supported:
    59  
    60  * `disk` - (Required) Disks to attach to the instance. This can be specified
    61      multiple times for multiple disks. Structure is documented below.
    62  
    63  * `machine_type` - (Required) The machine type to create.To create a custom
    64      machine type, value should be set as specified
    65      [here](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/latest/instances#machineType)
    66  
    67  * `name` - (Required) A unique name for the resource, required by GCE.
    68      Changing this forces a new resource to be created.
    69  
    70  * `zone` - (Required) The zone that the machine should be created in.
    71  
    72  - - -
    73  
    74  * `can_ip_forward` - (Optional) Whether to allow sending and receiving of
    75      packets with non-matching source or destination IPs.
    76      This defaults to false.
    77  
    78  * `description` - (Optional) A brief description of this resource.
    79  
    80  * `metadata` - (Optional) Metadata key/value pairs to make available from
    81      within the instance.
    82  
    83  * `metadata_startup_script` - (Optional) An alternative to using the
    84      startup-script metadata key, except this one forces the instance to be
    85      recreated (thus re-running the script) if it is changed. This replaces the
    86      startup-script metadata key on the created instance and thus the two
    87      mechanisms are not allowed to be used simultaneously.
    88  
    89  * `network_interface` - (Required) Networks to attach to the instance. This can
    90      be specified multiple times for multiple networks, but GCE is currently
    91      limited to just 1. Structure is documented below.
    92  
    93  * `network` - (DEPRECATED, Required) Networks to attach to the instance. This
    94      can be specified multiple times for multiple networks. Structure is
    95      documented below.
    96  
    97  * `project` - (Optional) The project in which the resource belongs. If it
    98      is not provided, the provider project is used.
    99  
   100  * `scheduling` - (Optional) The scheduling strategy to use. More details about
   101      this configuration option are detailed below.
   102  
   103  * `service_account` - (Optional) Service account to attach to the instance.
   104  
   105  * `tags` - (Optional) Tags to attach to the instance.
   106  
   107  The `disk` block supports: (Note that either disk or image is required, unless
   108  the type is "local-ssd", in which case scratch must be true).
   109  
   110  * `disk` - The name of the existing disk (such as those managed by
   111      `google_compute_disk`) to attach.
   112  
   113  * `image` - The image from which to initialize this
   114      disk. Either the full URL, a contraction of the form "project/name", or
   115      just a name (in which case the current project is used).
   116  
   117  * `auto_delete` - (Optional) Whether or not the disk should be auto-deleted.
   118      This defaults to true. Leave true for local SSDs.
   119  
   120  * `type` - (Optional) The GCE disk type, e.g. pd-standard, pd-ssd, or local-ssd.
   121  
   122  * `scratch` - (Optional) Whether the disk is a scratch disk as opposed to a
   123      persistent disk (required for local-ssd).
   124  
   125  * `size` - (Optional) The size of the image in gigabytes. If not specified, it
   126      will inherit the size of its base image. Do not specify for local SSDs as
   127      their size is fixed.
   128  
   129  * `device_name` - (Optional) Name with which attached disk will be accessible
   130      under `/dev/disk/by-id/`
   131  
   132  The `network_interface` block supports:
   133  
   134  * `network` - (Optional) The name of the network to attach this interface to.
   135      Either `network` or `subnetwork` must be provided.
   136  
   137  *  `subnetwork` - (Optional) the name of the subnetwork to attach this interface
   138      to. The subnetwork must exist in the same region this instance will be
   139      created in. Either `network` or `subnetwork` must be provided.
   140  
   141  * `access_config` - (Optional) Access configurations, i.e. IPs via which this
   142      instance can be accessed via the Internet. Omit to ensure that the instance
   143      is not accessible from the Internet (this means that ssh provisioners will
   144      not work unless you are running Terraform can send traffic tothe instance's
   145      network (e.g. via tunnel or because it is running on another cloud instance
   146      on that network). This block can be repeated multiple times. Structure
   147      documented below.
   148  
   149  The `access_config` block supports:
   150  
   151  * `nat_ip` - (Optional) The IP address that will be 1:1 mapped to the instance's
   152      network ip. If not given, one will be generated.
   153  
   154  (DEPRECATED) The `network` block supports:
   155  
   156  * `source` - (Required) The name of the network to attach this interface to.
   157  
   158  * `address` - (Optional) The IP address of a reserved IP address to assign
   159      to this interface.
   160  
   161  The `service_account` block supports:
   162  
   163  * `scopes` - (Required) A list of service scopes. Both OAuth2 URLs and gcloud

   171      instance. Can be MIGRATE or TERMINATE, for more info, read
   172      [here](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/setting-instance-scheduling-options)
   173  
   174  * `automatic_restart` - (Optional) Specifies if the instance should be
   175      restarted if it was terminated by Compute Engine (not a user).
