<p>I've created an ingress and have attached a metadata annotation of:</p>

<pre><code>kubernetes.io/ingress.global-static-ip-name: staging-abcrad-api-static-ip 
</code></pre>

<p>However even though this IP address exists*, it does not get attached - and it's been an hour or longer already.</p>

<p>How can I diagnose this? What may be the issue?</p>

<p>*</p>

<pre><code>gcloud compute addresses list
NAME                          REGION       ADDRESS          STATUS
staging-abcrad-api-static-ip               *****retracted   RESERVED
staging-abcsub-static-ip                  *****retracted   RESERVED
</code></pre>

<p>Probably the ingress controller logs: <a href="https://serverfault.com/questions/862308/how-do-i-view-logs-for-my-kubernetes-ingress-controller?rq=1">https://serverfault.com/questions/862308/how-do-i-view-logs-for-my-kubernetes-ingress-controller?rq=1</a></p>

<p>In my case I overlooked the fact I had:</p>

<pre><code>kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx"
</code></pre>
