What is Neo4j Aura for GCP?

Neo4j Aura for GCP allows you to provision and manage Neo4j AuraDB Instances from the GCP Console while taking advantage of integrated GCP billing. It's the same great Neo4j Aura service integrated into your GCP account.

Step 1: Purchase the Service

To get started, visit the Neo4j Aura for GCP Marketplace page and click the "Subscribe" button. Note that you won't be billed until you create an AuraDB Instance, so purchasing Neo4j Aura on GCP simply gets you started.

 

Step 2: Enable Billing

A pop-up window will appear, requesting that you enable billing.

Enable billing by clicking the Enable billing button. A new pop-up window will open; select "Create Billing Account."

Creating a Billing Account will be a 3-step process.

Click on the CONFIRM button. For security, GCP and Neo4j don't share your login credentials. This means that you need to log in to the Neo4j Aura website with the Google account you use on GCP. After logging in using your Google account, you'll be directed to the Neo4j Aura dashboard. 

From here, you can create a Neo4j AuraDB Instance hosted in the GCP region of your choice. Usage will be billed directly to your GCP billing account. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Some common Issues

If you see this message while attempting to purchase Aura, your account is not allowed to make a new subscription. This is due to a role setting on your user that can be changed by your GCP administrator.

To see your roles, please refer to the Google documentation on roles.
