Google Cloud Storage (Legacy)

Overview

The Google Cloud Storage Book integrates with Google Cloud Storage, allowing you to manage and store files effortlessly within your automations.

Prerequisites

1. Google Cloud Account: You need to have an active Google Cloud account. If you do not have one, you can sign up for a Google Cloud trial account to get started.

2. Google Cloud Storage Bucket: Ensure that a Google Cloud Storage bucket has been created. This bucket will be used to store your files and data.

3. Service Account with Storage Admin Role: Create a service account in Google Cloud and assign it the Storage Admin role. Kognitos will use this service account to interact with Google Cloud Storage.

4. Service Account Key: Download the JSON key file for your service account. This key file will be used to authenticate Kognitos with Google Cloud Storage.
