Adding an account to bucket
You can change the account's permissions by following this guide on Adding a member to a bucket-level policy.
NoteStatic IP allowlisting isn’t available for Google Cloud Storage. Bloomreach connects to GCS within Google Cloud, so these connections don’t use the public outbound IP addresses shown in Engagement.
If your GCS bucket is protected by VPC Service Controls or other GCP network restrictions, contact Bloomreach Support for the Bloomreach project and network details needed to configure access.
