Vault
Auto-auth method: Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
The gcp method performs authentication against the GCP Auth
method. Both gce and iam
authentication types are supported.
Credentials
Vault will use the GCP SDK's normal credential chain behavior. You can set a
static credentials value, but it is usually not needed. If running on GCE
using Application Default Credentials, you may need to specify the service
account and project since ADC does not provide metadata used to automatically
determine these.
