What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I'm trying to use rclone for sync bucket from GCP by using an service account access token to avoid using a service account key. I've followed the documentation and It's not working (could not find default credentials error).
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
rclone v1.68.1
- os/version: debian 12.5 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 6.1.0-21-amd64 (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.23.1
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
Google cloud Storage
