Configure this setting directly using the following Meltano command:

(credentials_file)

Environment variable: TARGET_GCS_CREDENTIALS_FILE
Default Value: $MELTANO_PROJECT_ROOT/client_secrets.json

The fully resolved path to the credentials json file. By default we will look in the meltano project directory root for a file called client_secrets.json

meltano config target-gcs set date_format [value]

(key_prefix)

Environment variable: TARGET_GCS_KEY_PREFIX
Default Value: meltano/${MELTANO_EXTRACT__LOAD_SCHEMA}/

This is the base key prefix which lets you define where the stream will write to in the bucket. By default, we use meltano/${MELTANO_EXTRACT__LOAD_SCHEMA}/ which is derived from the tap. For example tap-jira would end up in meltano/tap_jira/...

Environment variable: TARGET_GCS_KEY_NAMING_CONVENTION
Default Value: {stream}/export_date={date}/{timestamp}.jsonl

This is the naming convention for the key. Available values in the format string are stream (stream name), date, timestamp. By default this naming convention uses hive style partitioning
