OAuth2 and Service Account
There are two authentication methods available for Google services nodes, OAuth2 and Service Account. Mosaic Workflows recommends using OAuth. It's more widely available, and easier to set up. Refer to the Google documentation: Understanding service accounts for guidance on when you need service account.
