This article describes steps to deprecate a published Google Cloud Marketplace product.
After you deprecate a product, the product's Cloud Marketplace listing
is permanently deleted, and customers can't purchase, subscribe to, or deploy
the product.
Request deprecation of your product
To request deprecation of a product that you offer through
Cloud Marketplace, complete the following steps:
In Producer Portal, navigate to your product's Cloud Marketplace
listing.
Click to begin editing your published product.
Click the more_vert button. In the
dropdown menu that appears, select Deprecate product.
Fill out the form that appears. You must include the following information:
The date on which you want your product to be deprecated.
The reason that you want to deprecate your product. Your customers don't
see what you input here.
Under Confirm decision, in the text input field, type the listing ID of
the product that you want to deprecate, and then click
Submit deprecation request.
After you've submitted a deprecation request, it might take up to five business
days for Google to review your request. After your request is reviewed, Google
sends you a response.
Request to hide a product
In unusual cases where you want to hide your product from public
Cloud Marketplace search results, but still allow customers to access it
by visiting the URL of its product listing, you can request to turn off
product searchability.
We recommend that you don't turn off product searchability. The
Cloud Marketplace team individually reviews all requests to turn off
product searchability.
To request to turn off product searchability, complete the following steps:
In Producer Portal, navigate to your product's Cloud Marketplace
listing.
Click to begin editing your product's listing, and navigate to the
Product details page.
Under Product metadata, click the Product searchable toggle to turn
off product searchability.
