Class Method Details

.get_application_default(scope = nil, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Obtains the default credentials implementation to use in this environment.

Use this to obtain the Application Default Credentials for accessing Google APIs. Application Default Credentials are described in detail at goo.gl/IUuyuX.

If supplied, scope is used to create the credentials instance, when it can be applied. E.g, on google compute engine and for user credentials the scope is ignored.

Parameters:

  • scope (string|array|nil) (defaults to: nil)

    the scope(s) to access

  • options (hash) (defaults to: {})

    allows override of the connection being used
