Hi, community.

Recently I signed up free trial and setting up GCP streaming server using this document.

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/set-up-wowza-streaming-engine-on-google-cloud-platform](https://www.wowza.com/docs/set-up-wowza-streaming-engine-on-google-cloud-platform)

However when I tried making server image, it shows this error message. I have no idea what does api version mean.

```auto
gcloud compute --project=<MyProjectName> images create wowza-streaming-engine-480 --source-uri=http://storage.googleapis.com/wowzamediasystems/wse/WowzaStreamingEngine-4.8.0-byol-583956158.image.tar.gz

```

```auto
ERROR: (gcloud.compute.images.create) could not parse resource [http://storage.googleapis.com/wowzamediasystems/wse/WowzaStreamingEngine-4.8.0-byol-583956158.image.tar.gz]: unknown api version None

```

As I started with brand new GCP project, I doubt if some GCP setting is missing, but the document doesn’t mention any specific settings, so I believe it’s ok.

I tried this with CloudShell to clear environmental issue on my local PC, but it showed same message. I’d like to ask if someone tried this recently and saw same error or not.

Here is my gcloud CLI version, thank you in advance.

I would suggest you open a support ticket since this involves Google Cloud and then we can look more closely to try and assist you. We have not thoroughly tested all workflows although Engine is indeed compatible.
