Gcloud list displays flatlist instead of table format

Take "glcoud projects list" as an example.

If I run this in cloud shell, the output is as follows:

PROJECT_ID: my-user-project-324414

NAME: My User Project

PROJECT_NUMBER: 12345

PROJECT_ID: reference-flux-326616

NAME: Services Exploration Labs

PROJECT_NUMBER: 67890

I would like it to output like this:

PROJECT_ID     NAME      PROJECT_NUMBER

my-user-project-324414      My User Project      12345

eference-flux-326616     Services Exploration Labs     67890

I have Googled high and low… just can’t figure it out.

Same behaviour on my side. I tried all the different format options at https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/topic/formats but without much success.

Interestingly the output while running gcloud in a e.g. iTerm directly on the OS is still pretty-printed

I also had the same problem, turns out that I had the accessibility option turned on. 

You can use the following command to turn it off 

gcloud config set accessibility/screen_reader false
