Hi
Good catch, and no need to worry about connections breaking. This was an intentional rename, not a removal. The "Service Account Key File" option has been renamed to "Application Default Credentials" (ADC) in the GoogleCloudStorageConnector and the other Google Cloud package connectors. Safe updated the parameter label to match Google's terminology and reflect that wider set of options, rather than changing how the key file method itself works.
The underlying mechanism should be the same,and existing workspaces built with the old "Service Account Key File" option are expected to continue functioning without any changes needed.
Our docs have also been updated to reflect the new naming. Check out Parameters>Authentication for those details: GoogleCloudStorageConnector
Let me know if you run into any issues with using the Application Default Credentials! Happy to dig further 🙂
