OAuth2 with GCP gcloud

Question

When configuring authentication for a bucket using oauth, Commvault provides straight forward steps however when looking into gcloud parameters, what should be entered in the "REDIRECT_URI"

https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/workforce-manage-oauth-app#create

gcloud iam oauth-clients create APP_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID \
--project=PROJECT_ID \
--location=global \
--client-type="CONFIDENTIAL_CLIENT" \
--display-name="My OAuth application" \
--description="An application registration for MyApp" \
--allowed-scopes="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform" \
--allowed-redirect-uris="REDIRECT_URI" \
--allowed-grant-types="authorization_code_grant"

Thanks

Hi ​@dude,In Commvault, when setting up Google Cloud Storage (GCS) as a storage target with OAuth 2.0 authentication, the parameter --allowed-redirect-uris="REDIRECT_URI" is not relevant. Commvault employs service account authentication for GCS integration, which eliminates the need for user consent or redirect URIs.Commvault offers two main methods for integrating with Google Cloud Storage: Access & Secret Keys (Interoperability Mode), which utilizes GCS access and secret keys for authentication, and OAuth 2.0 (Service Account Mode), which uses the credentials of a service account (usually in JSON format) to authenticate and authorize access to GCS.Please let me know incase of any further queries.Regards,Karthik
