/usr/local/google_appengine
- that's a symlink that links to the SDK.

8...if you tell the Launcher to make the symlinks. – Wooble Jun 13 '10 at 03:18

Mine actually didn't link the directory at all. In /usr/local/bin it linked to all of the .py files in the SDK. I'm using the latest app engine on OSX 10.10 – s g Apr 03 '15 at 17:47

found mine in: `/Users/username/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine` (OSX 10.13.3, Google Cloud SDK 189.0.0) – tomas polach Feb 20 '18 at 18:27

If you just updated the SDK, the google_appengine dir does not exist, there is just the zipped file. You have to launch Google App Engine client to unzip it and create symlinks. – Guildenstern70 May 14 '15 at 09:21

For MAC OS
Instead of installing from the cloud.google website, install the sdk with brew
brew cask install google-cloud-sdk
After that install the python componenents :
gcloud components install app-engine-python
In pycharm set the path to :
/usr/local/Caskroom/google-cloud-sdk/latest/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine
This might be different for different users but make sure to select the google_appengine from the platform folder and it should work like a charm

1`gcloud components install app-engine-python` was the trick for me, thanks I had previously installed from the cloud.google website into my home directory so I didn't try the brew cask, but in this case the path to use in pycharm was `~/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine` – jerryb Nov 04 '20 at 07:28
