`<CommonParameters>`

This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see [ Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_commonparameters?view=powershell-7).

## Output Object
[`VBRGoogleCloudRepository`](vbrgooglecloudrepository.md)

## Examples

::: example
### Modifying Gateway Server of Google Cloud Object Storage

This example shows how to modify settings for a Google Cloud object storage added to the backup infrastructure. The cmdlet will use custom gateway servers to connect to Google Cloud object storage.

```
$repository = Get-VBRObjectStorageRepository -Name "google"
$gateserv = Get-VBRServer -Name "north.tech.local", "north2.tech.local"
Set-VBRGoogleCloudRepository -Repository $repository -ConnectionType Gateway -GatewayServer $gateserv
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRObjectStorageRepository`](get-vbrobjectstoragerepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$repository` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBRServer`](get-vbrserver.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$gateserv` variable.
3. Run the `Set-VBRGoogleCloudRepository` cmdlet. Set the `$repository` variable as the `Repository` parameter value. Set the `Gateway` value for the `ConnectionType` parameter. Set the `$gateserv` variable as the `GatewayServer` parameter value.
