I want to upload a file to google cloud storage with my phoenix application, i found some github project but i didn’t understand them very well, can any one help me to how doing that please !

I once attempted to use GCS for file uploading using elixir google api but I change a cloud provider since I needed a ecto integration and waffle and s3 integrates well. As for your question please kindly read the README of elixir google api . Add google_api_storage and goth to your dependencies G…

Is the file generated by the server or by the user? If the file is uploaded by the user, I would not bother uploading the file to your server and then forwarding it to the GCS bucket. Instead, I would generate a signed URL on the server, send that to the browser and let the browser upload the file d…

[image] jhefreyzz: Get your google client id and secret yes that’s exactly my problem i couldn’t know how to “Get your google client id and secret” and also where i suppose write : “export GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=[YOUR-OAUTH-CLIENT-ID] export GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=[YOUR-OAUTH-CLIENT-SECRET]”

Please kindly search on your own how to generate google client id and secrets, for starters you head over to API and services click on Credentials click on Create credentials and select OAuth client ID As for these two export GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=[YOUR-OAUTH-CLIENT-ID] export GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=[Y…

i did all this stuff and i got this: [image]

To be honest, I didn’t use OAuth2 for authentication instead I use Google service account. Do you really need to use OAuth2?

for me any thing work will be fine, can you please tell me how you did that without OAuth. Because i have a service account but i didn’t know how to use it and because i am begginer on that i suppose that i make some things wrong

Sure, do you have the service account json file already, if not please secure it first. Then in your terminal just type: export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service_account.json Then try make a request again and see if it works.

[image] jhefreyzz: {:ok, token} = Goth.Token.for_scope("https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform") i did that at first i didn’t use export cmd because i am in windows: [image] after that i run my app and i got the same error: [image]

I’m really not sure anymore I never encounter such error when I implement a file upload function to GCS. Have you inspect if there’s a token return from Goth.Token.for_scope. Could you also try using Goth.fetch/1 instead of for_scope.
