C# .net MVC, set path to Google Application Creden

问题:

I've just got this Google Sample Project to work on my VS2015,

However, after I published to "IIS" and host it, when I opened the link, the web page kept showing this message as the picture showed

I added the key to the web.config, but still doesn't work, just wondering if anyone had done this before, I really need help, thank you!

Edit: Here is my code

Web.Config

  <appSettings>
<!-- Set to your Google project id as shown on the Google Developers Console -->
<add key="GoogleCloudSamples:ProjectId" value="gdtest-1332" />
<add key="GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS" value="D:\ProjectCloud\gdtest-12323.json" />
<!--
Set to either mysql or datastore.
If using mysql, update the connectionString far below, and then run Update-Database in the
Package Manager Console.
-->
<add key="GoogleCloudSamples:BookStore" value="datastore" />
<!-- Set to your Google Cloud Storage bucket -->
<add key="GoogleCloudSamples:BucketName" value="cloudstoragetestbillez" />
<add key="webpages:Version" value="3.0.0.0" />
<add key="webpages:Enabled" value="false" />
<add key="ClientValidationEnabled" value="true" />
<add key="UnobtrusiveJavaScriptEnabled" value="true" />

回答1:

Programmatically set an environment variable at runtime as such:

string credential_path = @"C:\..\key.json";
System.Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS", credential_path);

I'm not an expert with IIS but it won't seem to pick up on environment variable set in your desktop environment.

Restarting the Visual Studio 2017 did it for me for Console Application.

Console.WriteLine(System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS"));

回答3:

From google documention it seems it is env var and not web.config.

If you are using a service account credential, set the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to the path to the JSON credential file you downloaded.

回答4:

With command prompt:

set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=[PATH_JSON]

You don´t need setting credentials on code

回答5:

Google says:

After creating a service account, you have two choices for providing the credentials to your application. You can either set the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable explicitly, or you can pass the path to the service account key in code.
