title: Google Compute Engine : Export and Import Compute-Engine(VM) info
body: <p>I am creating a copy of a VM(Compute Engine) from one project to another project, by taking a image of the boot disk and create a new instance using the image.
  I want to export and import the VM's other info as well, like Tags, machine-type, zone, scope etc.</p>
  
  <p>I am using gcloud console scripts to take images &amp; creating VMs etc, since I have to migrate/copy many VMs at a time.</p>
  
  <p>Please suggest a way to import/export Tags, machine-type, zone, scope etc.</p>
