本页面介绍如何设置 Google Cloud 项目并配置服务帐号以访问该项目。

设置 Google Cloud 项目

按照以下步骤设置一个 Google Cloud 项目。请注意，如果您不打算使用 CDN 分发内容，则只需向服务帐号授予 Video Stitcher User 角色（而不是 Video Stitcher Admin 角色）。

1. 登录您的 Google Cloud 账号。如果您是 Google Cloud 新手，请创建一个账号来评估我们的产品在实际场景中的表现。新客户还可获享 $300 赠金，用于运行、测试和部署工作负载。

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.

   Go to project selector

3. 确保您的 Google Cloud 项目已启用结算功能。

4. Enable the Video Stitcher API.

   Enable the API

5. 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 Admin role to the service account.

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

      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. In production environments, do not grant the Owner, Editor, or Viewer roles. Instead, grant a predefined role or custom role that meets your needs.
   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.

6. Create a service account key:

   1. In the Google Cloud console, click the email address for the service account that you created.
   2. Click Keys.
   3. Click Add key, and then click Create new key.
   4. Click Create. A JSON key file is downloaded to your computer.
   5. Click Close.

7. Set the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials. This variable applies only to your current shell session, so if you open a new session, set the variable again.

   Example: Linux or macOS

   export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

   Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

   For example:

   export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/home/user/Downloads/service-account-file.json"

   Example: Windows

   For PowerShell:

   $env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

   Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

   For example:

   $env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="C:\Users\username\Downloads\service-account-file.json"

   For command prompt:

   set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=KEY_PATH

   Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

8. 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.

   Go to project selector

9. 确保您的 Google Cloud 项目已启用结算功能。

10. Enable the Video Stitcher API.

    Enable the API

11. 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 Admin role to the service account.

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

       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. In production environments, do not grant the Owner, Editor, or Viewer roles. Instead, grant a predefined role or custom role that meets your needs.
    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.

12. Create a service account key:

    1. In the Google Cloud console, click the email address for the service account that you created.
    2. Click Keys.
    3. Click Add key, and then click Create new key.
    4. Click Create. A JSON key file is downloaded to your computer.
    5. Click Close.

13. Set the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials. This variable applies only to your current shell session, so if you open a new session, set the variable again.

    Example: Linux or macOS

    export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

    Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

    For example:

    export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/home/user/Downloads/service-account-file.json"

    Example: Windows

    For PowerShell:

    $env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

    Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

    For example:

    $env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="C:\Users\username\Downloads\service-account-file.json"

    For command prompt:

    set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=KEY_PATH

    Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

14. Install the Google Cloud CLI.

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. 使用 gcloud 工具测试您的身份验证环境。检查以下命令是否输出了没有错误的文本字符串：

    gcloud auth application-default print-access-token

激活服务帐号

1. 在您的终端中，为 gcloud 命令设置活跃项目。将 YOUR_PROJECT_ID 替换为您的项目 ID。

   gcloud config set project YOUR_PROJECT_ID
   

2. 激活服务帐号。将 PATH_TO_YOUR_SERVICE_KEY 替换为您下载到本地机器的 JSON 文件的路径。

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

您将使用此服务帐号授予访问权限并调用 Video Stitcher API。

创建仅拥有创建会话权限的服务帐号

由于 OAuth 令牌将传递给客户端应用，因此请创建一个仅具有创建会话权限的单独服务帐号；因此，已泄露的 OAuth 令牌无法危害您的资源，例如 CDN 密钥。

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. In production environments, do not grant the Owner, Editor, or Viewer roles. Instead, grant a predefined role or custom role that meets your needs.
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.

5. Click Close.

创建 VOD 源文件

此工作流需要 MPEG-DASH 清单 (MPD) 文件或 HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) 清单 (M3U8) 文件，以及关联的片段文件。您可以使用自己的现有 VOD 文件，也可以使用 Transcoder API 创建 VOD 源文件。
