Troubleshooting

How to fix Google Cloud not working

Google Cloud is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach cloud.google.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check Cloud Console status indicators

    Open the official status page first. Filter by Compute Engine or Cloud Storage because Console often loads while one API fails, so you can tell a broad outage from a project fault.

  2. Re-authenticate gcloud and browser session

    You lost your token. Run gcloud auth login in your terminal, then open Console again and pick the right account when you see an access denied or quota project prompt.

  3. Review billing, quotas and IAM permissions

    If BigQuery jobs stall or Functions reject your deploys, open Cloud Console and check Billing for your account state plus IAM and Admin > Quotas for API limits. Ask your admin for access.

  4. Switch region and inspect Cloud Logging errors

    Move regions to isolate the fault. Redeploy your workload in europe-west1 or us-central1, then open Logging > Logs Explorer in Cloud Console so you can copy the failure text for support.

While Google Cloud is down: what to use instead

  • gcloud CLI on your own machine When the Cloud Console hangs on a spinner or loads a blank dashboard, the command line tool on your laptop can often still reach the APIs, so you can list instances, restart a VM or read logs from your terminal.
  • A different region If the incident is limited to one region, move traffic to a zone elsewhere that you have already set up.
  • Google Cloud mobile app The Android and iOS app shows incidents and lets you stop or start Compute Engine instances, which helps when the browser console refuses to load.
  • AWS or Microsoft Azure This only works if you already keep a standby copy of your stack on that provider.
Your device

Google Cloud on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Restart the Google Cloud Console app and check the App Store to ensure you are running the latest version. If connectivity fails, toggle Airplane Mode or reconnect to a different Wi-Fi network.
Check
Launch the Google Cloud Console app on your iPhone or iPad to see if it fails to load your projects or shows connectivity alerts. You can also check the mobile web version of the Google Cloud status page.
Same time

Problems at the same time as Google Cloud

Since 7 October, all 2 of Google Cloud's spikes in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

About

What happens when Google Cloud goes down

Google Cloud is a suite of cloud services. Companies and developers rely on it for hosting, data storage, analytics, and internal tools; an outage interrupts deploying apps, accessing virtual machines, reading logs, or managing databases, and this page shows whether user problem reports for it are above their usual level in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours.

During an outage you may see the console fail to load, API calls return errors, Compute Engine instances stop responding, and Cloud Storage uploads or downloads stall. Some problems hit one region or one service first. Console and API issues surface before background jobs, because those interfaces handle sign-in, configuration, reads, and writes; a global dashboard can look calm while your project is broken.

Questions

Google Cloud FAQ

Is Google Cloud down right now?
The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. If that number is climbing, plenty of people are hitting the same wall. Check the official status page for confirmation from Google. To work out whether the trouble is only on your side, load another site in the same browser, try the service from a second network such as a phone hotspot, and watch whether the failure follows you or stays put.

The Cloud Console won't load for me but gcloud commands still work. What does that mean?
Often the console is the only piece that is broken, since it is a web app talking to the same APIs your terminal reaches. If gcloud returns data while the browser spins, your credentials and project are probably fine. Clear the cache, sign out and back in, then try an incognito window; a stale session or a browser extension causes this more often than an outage does.

My Compute Engine VM is stuck on starting and I keep getting a quota error. Is that an outage?
A quota message means your project has hit a limit on CPUs or IP addresses in that region, and the instance will keep failing until you free resources or ask for more. It is a per-project ceiling, so everyone else on the service carries on as normal. The status page will not move for you on this one. Check the quotas page in the console and try a different zone.

Why do I get a 403 saying I don't have storage.objects.get access to a bucket?
That error is an IAM rejection: your account lacks permission on that bucket or on the project around it, so the request never gets far. If the bucket belongs to someone else, ask the owner to grant you a role that includes object read access. Test a bucket you own. If that one opens fine, permissions are your problem, not the service.

My project got suspended after a declined card. Does that show up here?
No. Billing trouble sits with your account rather than with the service, so report levels stay flat while every API call in your project fails. Open the billing section of the console to see the card status and the payment failure message, then update the payment method. Access returns shortly after the payment clears.

How we track Google Cloud

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Google Cloud, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Google Cloud, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Google Cloud's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
