You've finally been given a new laptop, but you need to install all of the tools you need. You already installed the Cloud SDK, but none of the commands seem to be working correctly. What step did you likely forget?

  1. gcloud init

  2. gcloud config_list

  3. gcloud application_init

  4. gcloud config list

The correct answer is: gcloud init

You likely forgot to run the "gcloud init" command. This command initializes the Cloud SDK and sets up authentication and configuration settings. Option B, "gcloud config_list", is incorrect as it is missing a space between "config" and "list" and would not be a valid command. Option C, "gcloud application_init", is incorrect as there is no "application_init" command in the Cloud SDK. Option D, "gcloud config list", is similar to the correct answer, but is missing a space between "config" and "list", resulting in a different command altogether.
