Hey @nataliyalevytska, thanks for raising this issue!

I believe that is because of misconfigured GCP credentials in your ProviderConfig. Have you fixed the error?

I'm experiencing this as well and can validate that my credentials are correct. Would the error output if the service account doesn't have the correct permissions for the project in gcp?
