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 AllAgent Client CollectorConfigurationConfiguration 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://www.servicenow.com/docs/cZplfGTnNZ8sehDuFyxbhg "The following table lists and describes the metrics that are gathered by the acc_grp_metrics_list.json configuration data file. The file is uploaded to a check definition or check instance, and the metrics in the file are monitored by the check for its agent.").
4. Select the Manage Attachments icon (![]()) to attach the updated configuration file.
