Apigee hybrid requires certain Google
Cloud service APIs. In this step, you will enable the APIs that are required for your installation platform.
Use gcloud to enable the required APIs as explained in the following steps. If you prefer,
you can use the Google Cloud console to enable the APIs.
Complete the Prerequisites,
and be sure you have the gcloud CLI installed in your local shell:
gcloud --help
Create a PROJECT_ID environment variable where the
value is the ID of the Google Cloud project you plan to use for Apigee hybrid.
A project ID is a unique string used to differentiate your project from all others in Google Cloud.
If needed, see Locate the project ID:
export PROJECT_ID=YOUR_PROJECT_ID
