More information on the fields required to set up Google Cloud Storage with pimentaCHAT using a service account.
You’ll need to set the following fields:
| Config. Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Google Storage Bucket Name | The bucket name you’ve created on Google Storage. |
| Google Storage Access Id | The access ID (or username) of the service account which has access to your Cloud Storage bucket, usually in the format like: example-test@example.iam.gserviceaccount.com |
| Google Storage Secret | What is a essentially a .pem containing your private key and certificate. |
More information
Google Storage Secret - the value pushed here takes an argument of a .pem file to connect to your Cloud Storage bucket. When you create a service account, you will have the ability to download a .json file containing a number of variables. You’ll need the unescaped private key, along with one of the certificates linked at the bottom of the .json.
Syntax will look just like a regular .pem file:
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
unescaped private key goes here
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----
----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
first certificate goes here
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
Entering this into pimentaCHAT will allow it to authenticate with Google and store items in the bucket.
