# Google Cloud APIs
Integration version1.0.0
## Overview{% #overview %}

Google Cloud APIs allow you to access Google Cloud Platform products from your code.

Use the Datadog Google Cloud Platform integration to collect metrics from Google Cloud APIs.

## Setup{% #setup %}

### Installation{% #installation %}

If you haven't already, set up the [Google Cloud Platform integration](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/google-cloud-platform/) first. There are no other installation steps.
