Google Cloud Storage (GCS) is the cloud storage solution offered by Google Cloud, and you can set up an integration in Refuel to read from GCS. This is commonly used for reading documents and images, but also for uploading and ingesting CSVs and other files formats.

Setup guide

​
Step 0: Refuel GCP Service Account

Contact us at support@refuel.ai to get access to Refuel’s GCP service account email.

​
Step 1: Configure IAM Permissions for your GCP Bucket

You can watch the following Loom to understand how this works.
Steps:
  • Navigate to your Google Cloud Storage bucket in your GCP account.
  • Click on the Permissions tab and then hit the “Grant Access” button
  • Add Refuel’s GCP service account email as a principal and add Cloud Storage: Storage Object Viewer as the Role
  • Hit “Save” to submit your selection.

​
Step 2: Start sending Refuel your data!

That’s it! When you send Refuel any pieces of content that sit in GCS, all you need to send is the path in GCS (gs://bucket_name/path/to/object), and Refuel will be able to securely access it.
