Google Cloud provides a diverse array of services to realize the ambition of solving real business problems, like constrained resources. An image archive & analysis plus report generation use-case can be realized with just Google Workspace & GCP APIs. The principle of mixing-and-matching Google technologies is applicable to many other challenges faced by you, your organization, or your customers. These slides are from a half- to 1-hour presentation about this case study.

1. Image archive, analysis & report
generation with Google Cloud
Wesley Chun - @wescpy
Developer Advocate, Google
Adjunct CS Faculty, Foothill College
Why and Agenda
● Organizations have real-life business problems seeking solutions
● Google Cloud (the organization) produces 2 main product groups
○ Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Google Workspace (ex G Suite)
● May know GCP for compute, storage, data & AI/ML cloud services
● While Workspace known for its apps... also for developers(!)
● Use both to build novel solutions to unique business problems

2. Developer Advocate, Google Cloud
● Mission: enable current and future
developers everywhere to be
successful using Google Cloud and
other Google developer tools & APIs
● Focus: GCP serverless (App Engine,
Cloud Functions, Cloud Run); higher
education, Google Workspace, GCP
AI/ML APIs; multi-product use cases

Introduction to
Google APIs
Why are you here?
4. General steps
1. Go to Cloud Console
2. Login to Google/Gmail account
(Workspace domain may require admin approval)
3. Create project (per application)
4. Enable APIs to use
5. Enable billing (CC, Free Trial, etc.)
6. Download client library(ies)
7. Create & download credentials
8. Write code
9. Run code (may need to authorize)
Google APIs: how to use
Costs and pricing
● GCP: pay-per-use
● Google Workspace: subscription
● GCP Free Trial ($300/1Q, CC req'd)
● GCP "Always Free" tier
○ Most products have free tier
○ Daily or monthly quota
○ Must exceed to incur billing
● More on both programs at
cloud.google.com/free
Cloud/GCP console
console.cloud.google.com
● Hub of all developer activity
● Applications == projects
○ New project for new apps
○ Projects have a billing acct
● Manage billing accounts
○ Financial instrument required
○ Personal or corporate credit cards,
Free Trial, and education grants
● Access GCP product settings
● Manage users & security
● Manage APIs in devconsole
5. ● View application statistics
● En-/disable Google APIs
● Obtain application credentials
Using Google APIs
goo.gl/RbyTFD
API manager aka Developers Console (devconsole)
console.developers.google.com
Three different authz credential types
● Simple: API keys (to access public data)
○ Simplest form of authorization: an API key; tied to a project
○ Allows access to public data
○ Do not put in code, lose, or upload to GitHub! (can be restricted however)
○ Supported by: Google Maps, (some) YouTube, (some) GCP, etc.
● Authorized: OAuth client IDs (to access data owned by [human] user)
○ Provides additional layer of security via OAuth2 (RFC 6749)
○ Owner must grant permission for your app to access their data
○ Access granularity determined by requested permissions (user scopes)
○ Supported by: Google Workspace, (some) YouTube, (some) GCP, etc.
● Authorized: service accounts (to access data owned by an app/robot user)
○ Provides additional layer of security via OAuth2 or JWT (RFC 7519)
○ Project owning data grants permission implicitly; requires public-private key-pair
○ Access granularity determined by Cloud IAM permissions granted to service account key-pair
○ Supported by: GCP, (some) Google Workspace, etc.

7. Two different client library "styles"
● "Platform-level" client libraries (lower-level)
○ Supports multiple products as a "lowest-common denominator"
○ Manage API service endpoints (setup & use)
○ Manage authorization (API keys, OAuth client IDs, service accounts)
○ Google Workspace, Google Analytics, YouTube, Google Ads APIs, etc.
○ Install: developers.google.com/api-client-library
● "Product-level" client libraries (higher-level)
○ Custom client libraries made specifically for each product
○ Managing API service endpoints & security mostly taken care of
○ Only need to create a "client" to use API services
○ Install (Cloud/GCP & Firebase): cloud.google.com/apis/docs/cloud-client-libraries
○ Install (Maps): developers.google.com/places/web-service/client-library
● Some Google APIs families support both, e.g., Cloud
OAuth2 or
API key
HTTP-based REST APIs 1
HTTP
2
Google APIs request-response workflow
● Application makes request
● Request received by service
● Process data, return response
● Results sent to application
(typical client-server model)
