Google cloud asking what are our usecases


We have a google cloud account manager. They keep asking what we are working on in excruciating details. Not providing details means we may have a bad relationship with our cloud provider. How should we handle this?

You don't have to tell them anything. They're just fishing for info. I am curious where the idea that not providing the details would lead to a bad relationship- did they say that? Imply it?

Why are they interested unless they want to use you in a case study or marketing?

Give them details?

I mean, you don't have to tell them your secret sauce, but they're there to help you, not to hinder/steal from you.
