For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the [ServiceNow Store version history release notes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/store-release-notes/sn-store-release-notes.html).{#gcomengine-spoke__inline-send-to-store}

## Integration Hub subscription {#gcomengine-spoke__section_rsf_yvb_l3b}

This spoke requires an Integration Hub subscription. For more information, see [Legal schedules - IntegrationHub overview](https://www.servicenow.com/content/dam/servicenow-assets/public/en-us/doc-type/legal/snc-addendum-integrationhub.pdf).

## Spoke version {#gcomengine-spoke__section_mqp_tkv_bsb}

Google Compute Engine spoke v1.0.5 is the latest version. For version history of the spoke, see [Google Compute Engine spoke release notes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/store-release-notes/store-integrationhub-rn-gce.html).{#gcomengine-spoke__gce-ver}

## Spoke dependencies {#gcomengine-spoke__section_rxy_bmq_glb}

If you're having trouble installing the app, ensure that these
dependent plugins are installed:

* ServiceNow IntegrationHub Action Template - Data Stream (com.glide.hub.action_type.datastream)
* ServiceNow IntegrationHub Action Step - REST (com.glide.hub.action_step.rest)
* ServiceNow IntegrationHub Runtime (com.glide.hub.integration.runtime)
* ServiceNow Flow Designer - Dynamic Inputs (com.glide.hub.dynamic_inputs)
* Complex Object (com.glide.cobject)
* [Google Persistent Disk Spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/kJAJw97uVmQJAd9JC2~Vtg "Manage disks, snapshots, and images in Google Persistent Disk from your ServiceNow instance.") (sn_gpdisk_spoke)
* [Google Cloud Virtual Network Spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/GCQpsUhcv5B~_fvsOxwaFw "Manage firewall, network, subnetwork, and IP address in Google Cloud Virtual Network from your ServiceNow instance.") (sn_gcp_vpc_spoke)

{#gcomengine-spoke__ul_xpv_nfj_flb}  
Note:  
Some of these plugins are licensable features and require an appropriate license if used outside the spoke implementation. For information on licenses, contact your account manager.

## Google Compute Engine spoke account requirements {#gcomengine-spoke__section_rvj_b3t_kfba}

The Google Compute Engine spoke requires a custom app that you create in Google Cloud Platform.

## Supported versions {#gcomengine-spoke__section_ccw_l34_zgb}

This spoke was built for API version v1, but may be compatible with later
versions.

## Spoke actions {#gcomengine-spoke__section_hrs_1gt_kfb}

The Google Compute Engine spoke provides actions to automate Google Compute Engine when events occur in ServiceNow. For the spoke actions to
be performed, you must ensure that your project or organization in Google Cloud
Platform has the mentioned permissions. Available spoke actions include:

For more information about the required permissions, see [IAM permissions reference](https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/permissions-reference).

## Connection and credential alias requirements {#gcomengine-spoke__section_akr_h3t_kfb}

Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection and credential information, and OAuth credentials. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple credentials and connection information
profiles when using multiple environments. If the connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that use the connection.

For information about setting up the spoke, see
[Set up the Google Compute Engine spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/O6zNhEunXm4B0yk73WyWew#setup-gcompute "Integrate the ServiceNow instance and Google Compute Engine spoke by using OAuth 2.0 credentials to authenticate ServiceNow requests.").
