Answer 1

If you are on MAC OS and using .zsh shell then do the following:

1. Edit your .zshrc and add the following

   # The next line updates PATH for the Google Cloud SDK.
   source /Users/USER_NAME/google-cloud-sdk/path.zsh.inc
   
   # The next line enables zsh completion for gcloud.
   source /Users/USER_NAME/google-cloud-sdk/completion.zsh.inc
   

2. Create new file named path.zsh.inc under your home directory(/Users/USER_NAME/):

   script_link="$( readlink "$0" )" || script_link="$0"
   apparent_sdk_dir="${script_link%/*}"
   if [ "$apparent_sdk_dir" == "$script_link" ]; then
    apparent_sdk_dir=.
   fi
   sdk_dir="$( cd -P "$apparent_sdk_dir" && pwd -P )"
   bin_path="$sdk_dir/bin"
   export PATH=$bin_path:$PATH
