A<------- is the correct first step. why? Because 99% of cloud deployment is done programmatically using IaC, such as Terraform or Google's own IaC, and for that reason alone "Enable the Cloud Spanner API" is a must!!

B looks more like it. When creating a Cloud Spanner instance, you configure the instance details first before enabling the Cloud Spanner API, if its not enabled by default i.e. if this is the first time you are using Cloud Spanner in your project.

Selected Answer: B

Answer must be B , here is why? I was confused between A and B but I tested this by creating a new project, when you go to spanner and click on create a spanner instance it automatically enables the API for you and you can all see this activity on the notification panel on the top right along with the visibility of this message clearly on that instance page as well, First it will auto-enable the API and then It will give you an option to select multi-region, Now the questions say your first step that has to be multi-region since enabling the API was done by google automatically and none other options makes sense here.

Correction : It's A Since it does not specify if we are using command line tool or UI, if you are using command line tool then you will have to enable this.

This is TRUE. Verified this: - Go to your GCP project and verify that "Cloud Spanner API" is NOT enabled. - Go to Cloud Spanner. Click "Create Instance". - Check back again the "Cloud Spanner API" , you will see that status is "API Enabled".
