Don't rely on what the system shows in that dialog. Instead, use echo %JAVA_HOME%. You should also show the values of java -version and javac -version. The latter is particularly important because gcloud needs to be able to find it in order to deploy.
I tried changing the path to echo %JAVA_HOME% . Still shows the same error. Can you give some detailed steps on what exactly should i do to get this running.
You didn't provide any of the information I requested, so I'm not sure how you expect us to help you.
Only type
echo %JAVA_HOME%
here are the values of java and javac version

Can you include here the log file produced by gcloud when the deployment fails? There's not enough information to understand why it can't find the JDK given that javac is returning the right information.

This doesn't appear to be correct. You'd want it to show C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_291\bin\java.exe. Please double check your PATH variable and make sure it is correct. You want it to include %JAVA_HOME%\bin.
The order is important. Make sure you put them first to make sure the Oracle versions of the EXEs are not picked up since it's likely providing a newer version of Java than you need.
I made the changes and now get this one

Ok sure Thanks @ewpatton and
I ran into this and after rectifying this error, I should run this command gcloud app deploy --project=appcentral-311908 appengine\build\war again right?
Since it has uploaded all the files i just asked.
Yes, once you enable the Google Cloud Build API you should be able to proceed. You only need to do this once per App Engine project (this isn't specific to App Inventor--it's how Google App Engine / Google Cloud works)
