If you do not access Cloud Shell for 120 days, we will delete your home disk. You will receive an email notification before we do so and simply starting a session will prevent its removal.
This only applies to the home directory of your Cloud Shell instance (you may want to store it on Cloud Storage anyway if you want to keep it). Any other Google services you use will be unaffected.
I hardly use the cloud shell, as it is a last resort to shell out from overly protected networks. Fewer and fewer environments restrict so much, so I’ve bumped into the home directory deletion a few times now.
I might use it more in the future, as I recently discovered there is a URL trick so you can start a cloud shell with parameters like an initial git repository: [WayBack] Open in Cloud Shell | Google Cloud
The Open in Cloud Shell feature allows you to publish a link that opens the Cloud Console and either automatically clones a Git repository into Cloud Shell or starts Cloud Shell with a custom image. It also allows for instructions to be printed to the terminal to help users interact with the content.
The Open in Cloud Shell feature helps developers experiment with code samples and APIs without having to worry about downloading Cloud SDK, installing required dependencies, or searching for relevant source files. This page explains how to add this feature to your Git repository.
Currently, only GitHub and Bitbucket repositories are whitelisted. If you would like to add a different repository, send feedback with the repository type you’d like to use with Open in Cloud Shell.
Setting up the home directory with my scripts can be a curse, so I have contemplated on these kinds of solutions:
store scripts in Google Drive, and mount part of Google Drive into the Cloud Shell
store scripts in Google Cloud Storage
script the setup of the home directory via a bash script in a gist
Cloud Shell inactivity: If you do not access Cloud Shell for 120 days, your home disk will be deleted. You will receive an email notification before its deletion and simply starting a session will prevent its removal. Please consider a different solution on Google Cloud storage for sensitive data you wish to store long term.
Non-interactive usage: Cloud Shell is intended for interactive use only. Non-interactive sessions will be ended automatically after a warning. Note that Cloud Shell sessions are capped at 12 hours, after which sessions are automatically terminated. You can use a new session immediately after.
Weekly usage: Cloud Shell also has weekly usage limits. If you reach your usage limit, you’ll need to wait until the specified time (listed under Usage Quota, found under the three dots menu icon) before you can use Cloud Shell again.
Restoring a session after a service limit violation: If your session is terminated or cannot be established because you exceeded a service limit, Cloud Shell will display an error with a link to a form that allows you to appeal the limit violation. Click the feedback link and submit the form with more information about the tasks you were performing before your session was terminated.
For a web-dashboard showing both agenda and month-calendar, I wanted to show the daily activities only on the agenda, and all other events on both the agenda and mont-calendar.
Google Chat launched to Google Workspace accounts in 2017 and is now available for free on personal accounts. When you switch from classic Hangouts to Google Chat on your personal account, you
but then came this in the list of limitations:
Video call ringing isn’t available on Google Chat. If you use classic Hangouts for direct video calls that ring, don’t switch to Google Chat. To start a video call in Google Chat, you can drop a Google Meet chip into the conversation and dial in.
Now looking for an integrated chat and video call option that my mentally retarded brother understands, as the non-straightforward integration of Google Chat and Google Meet features won’t cut it for his mental abilities.
