For anyone following, you can "inject" a credentials json file for a google cloud service account so at to get access to your google cloud storage from agents on aws ec2 instances that are managed by the AWS autoscaler by providing the following in the ADDITIONAL CLEARML CONFIGURATION when starting the autoscaler:sdk.google.storage.credentials_json: "/root/gs.cred" sdk.google.storage.project: "<my-gcp-project-id>" files { gsc { contents: """<copy-paste the contents of your service_credentials.json file here>""" path: "/root/gs.cred" } }This will create the file /root/gs.cred in the worker node with the contents of your service credentials json and tell your agent (or the sdk) about it.
Note that the contents of the service credentials file will be logged by the autoscaler and shown in its configuration tab under extra_clearml_conf
My local environment has clearml version 1.6.3rc0
and agents in aws were started with the AWS Autoscaler which has no explicit place for google credentials.
I see a place for Additional ClearML Configuration in the AWS autoscaler UI which I suspect may help but I don't see how I can pass a secrets file along with my agent.
Hi PanickyMoth78
Hmm yes, I think the StorageManager (i.e. the google storage pythonclinet) also needs a json file with the credentials.
Let me check something
in Your Additional ClearML Configuration (which is basically clearml.conf configuration)
Add the following:environment { GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="~/gs.cred" } files { gsc { contents: "<this is your GCP storage credentials file>" path: "~/gs.cred" } }Reference:

🤞
Thanks AgitatedDove14 for all the guidance.
I think it should look something like:files { gsc { contents: """{"type": "service_account", "project_id": "ai-platform", "private_key_id": "9999", "private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----==\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n", "client_email": "a@ai.iam.gserviceaccount.com", "client_id": "111", "auth_uri": " ", "token_uri": " ", "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": " ", "client_x509_cert_url": " "}""" path: "~/gs.cred" } }
I now get this error:2022-07-18 21:51:29,168 - clearml.storage - ERROR - Failed creating storage object Reason: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '~/gs.cred'
to be clear, I replaced <this is your GCP storage credentials file> with the contents of that file, escaping every " with a \" and removing newlines.
