create a project via command line

when you create a project via command line do you need to specify a billing account. gcloud projects create. 

To change the billing account do you need to user UI.

1 Answers

Yes you need. After you create a new project with gcloud projects, you need to link it to your Billing Account using this command:


gcloud beta billing projects link PROJECT_ID --billing-account=ACCOUNT_ID

The same command as above can also be used to change Billing Account for a particular project.

To get the ID of your Billing Account, you can use gcloud beta billing accounts list.

Note: the appearance of beta here is because the whole set of commands for billing is still not marked as "GA" in the SDK yet.
