# snapshots are incremental and dont need to be deleted, deleting snapshots will merge snapshots, so deleting doesn't loose anything
# having too many snapshots is unwiedly so this script deletes them after 60 days

gcloud compute snapshots list --filter="creationTimestamp<$(date -d "-2 days" "+%Y-%m-%d")" --regexp "(gcs.*)" --uri | while read SNAPSHOT_URI; do
gcloud compute snapshots delete $SNAPSHOT_URI --quiet
