# Configure the Google Cloud Platform \(GCP\) configuration data file

Configure the Google Cloud Platform \(GCP\) configuration data file to monitor metrics in your GCP environment.

## Before you begin

Role required: agent\_client\_collector\_admin

## About this task

The GCP configuration data file is a .json file which contains all of the metrics collected from your GCP environment. Metrics that you add to the **acc\_gcp\_metrics\_list.json** file are monitored by the check to which the file is attached.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Agent Client Collector** > **Configuration** > **Configuration Files**.

2.  Locate the **acc\_gcp\_metrics\_list.json** configuration file.

3.  Download and add the GCP metrics to the configuration file that you want to be monitored.

    For details on the available GCP metrics, see [Google Cloud Platform \(GCP\) metrics](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-operations-management/agent-client-collector/gcp-metrics.md).

4.  Select the Manage Attachments icon \(\[Omitted image "paper-clip-icon.png"\] Alt text:\) to attach the updated configuration file.
