将目录从本地计算机移动到GCP中的实例

Question

I am trying to move a folder from my local machine to the remote server in an instance of GCP:

gcloud compute scp --recurse myDirectory instance-1:~/Folder

It looks like it is uploaded (because I see the files uploading), but when I checked the folder at the remote server there is nothing. What I am doing wrong?

I have two projects and I set up gcloud with the suitable project.

Answer 1

The answer is inspired by: gcloud compute copy-files succeeds but no files appear

I needed to write username@instance, thus this works:

gcloud compute scp --recurse myDirectory username@instance-1:~/Folder
