Google Cloud Storage Integration

Overview

The Google Cloud Storage integration allows you to use Google Cloud as a source for importing and exporting data into and out of your Cordial account using either the user interface (UI) or the API.

Once the integration is successfully enabled, you will see a new option for Google Cloud Storage on data import and export pages within the UI, and as a source or destination parameter in the API.
