Datastore authentication for workload identity
Description of Change
Fix authentication compatibility for datastore when using workload identity rather than manual credentials.
Related Issue
N/A
Motivation and Context
When using workload identity, getAuth()
will return an object without email
or key
fields. If we provide null values when initialising the datastore client, this breaks authentication:
error: Serving an error page for /reading-history/teams.json?limit=5
message: 'The incoming JSON object does not contain a client_email field',
If instead we leave out any authentication details, the client will default to using the workload identity and successfully connect.
