Article summary

Google Cloud Storage (GCS), an object storage service offered by Google Cloud Platform (GCP), is one of many source locations that Bobsled supports. A Provider can set up a Google Cloud Storage source by first granting Bobsled access to the source bucket in GCP and then configuring the bucket as a source location in Bobsled. Check the setup guide to get started.


Bobsled IAM Role

Bobsled recommends creating a dedicated IAM role in Google Cloud Storage and assigning that role to the Bobsled Service account email in your source bucket.

Permissions on Source

Bobsled requires the following permissions on a Google Cloud Storage bucket to be able to read files in the bucket:

  • storage.buckets.get

  • storage.objects.get

  • storage.objects.list

For more information regarding these permissions, please visit Google IAM permissions ↗


Restrictions

Bobsled only supports regions with Gen2 cloud functions. Visit Google Cloud Functions Locations ↗ for supported regions.
