  4. Upload the JSON file with the key for a Google Cloud service account with the necessary roles to access your project's resources. If you need to generate this file in GCP, continue onto the next steps. Otherwise, skip to step #7.

  5. To generate the Service Account JSON, navigate to the Service Accounts menu in Google Cloud Platform, find a service account with read/write access to GCP Buckets, and select the ellipsis (three dots) to the right of its name. Then, select Manage keys:

  8. Next, enter the name of the Google Cloud Platform Bucket where you wish to store your data, exactly as it appears in GCP.

  9. (Optional) Provide a label for this bucket, for how it will be referred to elsewhere in Intelligent Assets. By default, the label will be the same as the GCP Bucket name.

    Without entering a custom label, Intelligent Assets will default to the GCP bucket name.

    Otherwise, Intelligent Assets will use the label to refer to this storage location.

  10. You are now ready to save the storage location. Click the Done (✓) button in the top-right hand section of the Storage location settings to save your changes.
