Google Cloud Storage: Connection guide

How to connect Google Cloud Storage data to Funnel with a data request, including bucket access options.

How to get these dimensions and metrics in your workspace?

What do you need?

Submit a data request. See Request new data in Funnel.

  • Business or Enterprise plan

  • Include the following information in your data request: + Data platform origin (for example, Shopify Orders or Internal Enrollment) + Exact file name as it appears in your GCS bucket + Access to your GCS bucket (read-only) — follow one of the options below

Grant Funnel access to your GCS bucket

You have two options to provide Funnel with access:

​

Option 1: Allow Funnel’s service account access to your bucket

  1. Log in to your Google Cloud Console.

    ​

  2. Navigate to Storage → Cloud Storage → Browser.

    ​

  3. Find and select the relevant bucket.

    ​

  4. Click “Edit Bucket Permissions.”

    ​

  5. Grant access to the following service account: funnel-customs-account@funnel-customs.iam.gserviceaccount.com

    ​

  6. Assign the Storage Object Viewer role to this account.

    ​

  7. Copy the URI of the bucket (for example: https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser/_details/{bucket}/{path}) and include it in your request.

​

Option 2: Provide a service account for Funnel to assume

If you prefer, you can provide Funnel with a dedicated service account that we can assume to access your bucket.

​

  • Ensure the service account has read-only access (Storage Object Viewer role) to the necessary files or buckets.

  • Share the service account details and any required credentials with Funnel securely as part of your request.

​

Once you’ve submitted your request and provided access (via either option), our team will review and proceed with setting up your Google Cloud Storage data request.
