Cloud Container Builder authentication token issue

Question

I tried running the following code on Cloud Container Builder using the npm builder:

const Storage = require('@google-cloud/storage');
const storage = new Storage();
const bucketName = 'some-bucket-name';

test(`can access GCP`, async (t) => {
  await storage
    .createBucket(bucketName)
    .then(() => {
      console.log(`Bucket ${bucketName} created.`);
      t.pass();
    })
    .catch(err => {
      console.log(err);
      t.fail();
    });
});

When I did this, I got a 404 page not found error. How do I fix this?

In case it helps, I also tried using the Data Loss Prevention API and it gave me an error saying Getting metadata from plugin failed with error: Could not refresh access token.

Thanks!

This was due to a bug in a dependency of google-auto-auth that was fixed as of version 0.9.2.

Unfortunately, the client libraries (such as @google-cloud/storage) have not yet been updated to use this version of google-auto-auth. Until they are updated, you can work around this by overriding transitive dependencies. If you're using yarn (instead of npm), add the following section to your package.json file:

"resolutions": {
  "google-auto-auth": "^0.9.2"
}
