I have an SDD disk of 200GB in Google Cloud, that I want to reduce to 50GB. Google Cloud Console, and per documentation, only allows me to increase disk size.
What solutions do I have to decrease disk size?

In the Google Cloud console, go to the Cloud Monitoring > Metrics Explorer page. In the Resource and metric section, click Select a metric , then select VM Instance ( gce_instance ). Select the Instance active metric category list, and then select Disk read operations ( instance/disk/read_ops_count ). Click Apply.
Persistent disks are durable network storage devices that your instances can access like physical disks in a desktop or a server. The data on each persistent disk is distributed across several physical disks.
Only increasing disk size is supported. Disks can be resized regardless of whether they are attached.
