En esta página, se muestra cómo configurar un proyecto de Google Cloud y cuentas de servicio para acceder al proyecto.

Configura un proyecto de Google Cloud

Seguir estos pasos para configurar un proyecto de Google Cloud Ten en cuenta que si no planeas usar una CDN para distribuir contenido, solo debes otorgar el rol Usuario de Video Stitcher (y no Administrador de Video Stitcher) a la cuenta de servicio.

1. Sign in to your Google Cloud account. If you're new to Google Cloud, create an account to evaluate how our products perform in real-world scenarios. New customers also get $300 in free credits to run, test, and deploy workloads.

2. In the Google Cloud console, on the project selector page, select or create a Google Cloud project.

   Note: If you don't plan to keep the resources that you create in this procedure, create a project instead of selecting an existing project. After you finish these steps, you can delete the project, removing all resources associated with the project.

15. To initialize the gcloud CLI, run the following command:

    gcloud init

    Note: You can run the gcloud CLI in the Google Cloud console without installing the Google Cloud CLI. To run the gcloud CLI in the Google Cloud console, use Cloud Shell.
16. Usa la herramienta de gcloud para probar tu entorno de autenticación. Comprueba que el siguiente comando genere una string de texto sin errores:

    gcloud auth application-default print-access-token

Activa la cuenta de servicio

1. En tu terminal, configura el proyecto activo para los comandos de gcloud. Reemplaza YOUR_PROJECT_ID por el ID del proyecto.

   gcloud config set project YOUR_PROJECT_ID
   

2. Activa la cuenta de servicio. Reemplaza PATH_TO_YOUR_SERVICE_KEY por la ruta de acceso al archivo JSON que descargaste en tu máquina local.

   gcloud auth activate-service-account --key-file PATH_TO_YOUR_SERVICE_KEY
   

Usarás esta cuenta de servicio para autorizar el acceso y llamar a la API de Video Stitcher.

Crea una cuenta de servicio que solo tenga permisos para crear sesiones

Dado que un token de OAuth se pasará a una aplicación cliente, debes crear una cuenta de servicio independiente que solo tenga permisos para crear una sesión. Por lo tanto, un token de OAuth filtrado no puede comprometer tus recursos, como las claves de CDN.

Create a service account:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Create service account page.

   Go to Create service account
2. Select your project.

3. In the Service account name field, enter a name. The Google Cloud console fills in the Service account ID field based on this name.

   In the Service account description field, enter a description. For example, Service account for quickstart.

4. Click Create and continue.

5. Grant the Video Stitcher User role to the service account.

   To grant the role, find the Select a role list, then select Video Stitcher User.

   Note: The Role field affects which resources the service account can access in your project. You can revoke these roles or grant additional roles later.
6. Click Continue.

7. Click Done to finish creating the service account.

   Do not close your browser window. You will use it in the next step.

Crea los archivos fuente de VOD

Este flujo de trabajo requiere un archivo de manifiesto MPEG-DASH (MPD) o un archivo de manifiesto (M3U8) de HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), además de los archivos de segmentos asociados. Puedes usar tus propios archivos VOD existentes o crear archivos de origen de VOD con la API de Transcoder.
