Hi Salman, There are broadly two types of authorization on GCP: user accounts and service accounts. User account tokens will act on behalf of a particular end-user, and service account tokens will act on behalf of that service account. I'm not exactly sure which one is right for your application, based on the information you presented. User account tokens only need one user interaction, and then subsequent authorization tokens can be retrieved using the refresh token produced during 3-legged auth.
If you are looking for a service account <https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/service-accounts>, then you can either pass the service account credentials using the Application Default Credentials <https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/application-default-credentials> mechanism, or you can use JWTConfigFromJSON <https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/oauth2/google#JWTConfigFromJSON> to read service account JSON in a manner of your choosing. Hope that helps! -Ross On Sat, Nov 18, 2017 at 5:56 AM Sameer Ajmani <sam...@golang.org> wrote: > +Ross and Jonathan > > On Sat, Nov 18, 2017 at 1:26 AM SALMAN AHMED <salmanbukhari...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> I am trying to automate the VM and Network resource creation using GCD >> Client API.
