Barry Hart updated AIRFLOW-1635:
--------------------------------
Attachment: google_cloud_platform_connection.patch
> Allow creating Google Cloud Platform connection without requiring a JSON file
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AIRFLOW-1635
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1635
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: gcp
> Affects Versions: 1.8.2
> Reporter: Barry Hart
> Attachments: google_cloud_platform_connection.patch
>
>
> Most connection types can be created purely from the Airflow UI. Google Cloud
> Platform connections do not support this, because they require a JSON file to
> be present on disk. This is awkward for users who only have UI access (i.e.
> no direct access to the server's file system) because it requires
> coordination with a system administrator to add or update a connection.
> I have prototyped a workaround which allows pasting the JSON file *contents*
> into the key_path field. It works, but probably needs some additional thought
> since it is potentially confusing entering something that is not a path into
> that field.
