Trying to create redis instance, but says location not found

[Peter Chen]

I used the following command, europe-west is the region of my appengine app

gcloud redis instances create pro-redis --size=1 --region=europe-west --redis-version=redis_4_0

I got this:

ERROR: (gcloud.redis.instances.create) PERMISSION_DENIED: Location europe-west is not found or access is unauthorized.

Hello,

Try adding a “1” to europe-west, so it would be “europe-west1”. Please take a look at the memorystore locations. Europe-west in App Engine and Europe-west1 in memorystore are the same region based in Belgium.
