The component in this framework is available in all Talend products.

Basic settings

Use an existing connection	Select this check box and in the Component List click the relevant connection component to reuse the connection details you already defined.
Credential type	Select the mode to be used to authenticate to your project. Service account: authenticate using a Google account that is associated with your Google Cloud Platform project. When selecting this mode, the parameter to be defined is Service account key. Application Default Credentials: authenticate using the Application Default Credentials. When selecting this mode, no additional parameters need to be defined as credentials are automatically found based on the application environment. OAuth Access Token: authenticate using an OAuth access token. When selecting this mode, the parameter to be defined is OAuth Access Token. To know more about the Google Cloud authentication process, read the Google Cloud documentation.
Service account key	Click the [...] button next to the service account key field to browse for the JSON file that contains your service account key. This property is only available when you authenticate using Service account.
OAuth Access Token	Enter an access token. The lifetime of the token is one hour. The component does not perform the token refresh operation but will fetch the new access token to operate beyond the one-hour limit. This property is only available when you authenticate using OAuth Access Token.
Source bucket name	Specify the name of the bucket from which you want to copy or move objects.
Project ID	When the credential type is set to OAuth Access Token, specify the project ID from which you want to copy or move objects.
Source object key	Specify the key of the object to be copied.
Source is folder	Select this check box if the source object is a folder.
Target bucket name	Specify the name of the bucket to which you want to copy or move objects.
Target folder	Specify the target folder to which the objects will be copied or moved.
Action	Select the action that you want to perform on objects from the list. Copy: copies objects from the source bucket or folder to the target bucket or folder. Move: moves objects from the source bucket or folder to the target bucket or folder.
Rename	Select this check box and in the New name field enter a new name for the object to be copied or moved. The Rename check box will not be available if you select the Source is folder check box.
Die on error	This check box is cleared by default, meaning to skip the row on error and to complete the process for error-free rows.

Advanced settings

Use a custom endpoint	Select this check box to use a private endpoint rather than the default one. When selected, enter the URL in the Google Storage Private API URL property, by respecting the following format: `"https://storage.goggleapis.com"`. For more information, see Access Google APIs through endpoints from Google documentation. This property is only available when you authenticate using Service account.
Use source path	Select this check box to add paths while copying or moving items in the same bucket or several ones. When you select the Rename check box from the Basic settings view, the Use source path option does not work.
tStatCatcher Statistics	Select this check box to gather the Job processing metadata at the Job level as well as at each component level.
