Create Credentials

This guide will help you to generate your GCP credentials to connect your GCP account to Qovery.

Generate your GCP credentials

1. Connect to your GCP console

2. Create a new Project or open an exiting one

   

3. Open the embedded Google shell

   

4. Run the following command in the Google Shell to create the service account and generate the json key:

   curl https://hub.qovery.com/files/create_credentials_gcp.sh | \
   bash -s -- $GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT qovery_role qovery-service-account

   You can modify:

   • the service account name by replacing qovery-service-account by the name of your choice
   • the role name by replacing qovery_role by the role name of your choice

5. Once the script is finished, you will see the following message:

   created key [xxxx] of type [json] as [key.json] for [qovery-service-account@<your-project>.iam.gserviceaccount.com]
   Operations completed. You can now download your json key to upload in Qovery

   So you can download it by clicking on the Download button.

   

   And specify the name of the file /your/home/key.json and click on Download.

   

   That's it!
