Hi@akhtar,

You can manage services in the GCP cloud from your terraform code. For that, you just need to install some plugins of GCP using the terraform init command. After that, you can use the below code. It will launch one filestore instance.

resource "google_filestore_instance" "instance" {
  name = "test-instance"
  zone = "us-central1-b"
  tier = "PREMIUM"

  file_shares {
    capacity_gb = 2660
    name        = "share1"
  }

  networks {
    network = "default"
    modes   = ["MODE_IPV4"]
  }
}
