To invoke a private container via HTTPS, you need to get authenticated. To do this, get:
-
Provide the IAM token in the
Authorization
header in the following format:Authorization: Bearer <IAM_token>
IAM tokens are valid for up to 12 hours.
-
API key for a service account.
Provide the API key in the
Authorization
header in the following format:Authorization: Api-Key <API_key>
Use API keys if requesting an IAM token automatically is not an option.
