Google Cloud Storage V2 connection properties

When you create a Google Cloud Storage V2 connection, configure the connection properties.
The following table describes the Google Cloud Storage connection properties:
Property
Description
Connection Name
Name of the connection.
Each connection name must be unique within the organization. Connection names can contain alphanumeric characters, spaces, and the following special characters: _ . + -,
Maximum length is 255 characters.
Description
Description of the connection. Maximum length is 4000 characters.
Type
The Google Cloud Storage V2 connection type.
Runtime Environment
Name of the runtime environment where you want to run the tasks.
You cannot run a database ingestion and replication task or streaming ingestion and replication task on a Hosted Agent or serverless runtime environment.
Service Account ID
The client_email value in the JSON file that you download after you create a service account.
Service Account Key
The private_key value in the JSON file that you download after you create a service account.
Project ID
The project_id value in the JSON file that you download after you create a service account.
If you created multiple projects with the same service account, enter the ID of the project that contains the bucket that you want to connect to.
Private Key ID
The private_key_id value in the JSON file that you download after you create a service account.
This property applies only to a database ingestion and replication or streaming ingestion and replication task.
Client ID
The client_id value in the JSON file that you download after you create a service account.
This property applies only to a database ingestion and replication or streaming ingestion and replication task.
Is Encrypted File
Specifies whether a file is encrypted.
Select this option when you import an encrypted file from Google Cloud Storage.
Default is unselected.
Bucket Name
The Google Cloud Storage bucket name that you want to connect to.
When you select a source object , the Package Explorer lists files and folders available in the specified Google Cloud Storage bucket.
If you do not specify a bucket name, you can select a bucket from the Package Explorer to select a source.
Optimize Object Metadata Import
Optimizes the import of metadata for the selected object without parsing other objects, folders, or sub-folders available in the bucket.
Directly importing metadata for the selected object can improve performance by reducing the overhead and time taken to parse each object available in the bucket.
Default is not selected.

Configuring the proxy settings on Windows

If your organization uses an outgoing proxy server to connect to the Internet, the Secure Agent connects to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services using the proxy server.
To configure the proxy server settings for the Secure Agent on a Windows machine, you must configure the proxy server settings through the Secure Agent Manager and the JVM options of the Secure Agent.
Restriction: These steps do not work for Data Ingestion and Replication.
Contact your network administrator for the proxy settings.
    1Click Start > All Programs > Informatica Cloud Secure Agent > Informatica Cloud Secure Agent to launch the Secure Agent Manager.
    The Secure Agent Manager displays the Secure Agent status.
    2Click Proxy on the Secure Agent Manager page.
    3Click Use a Proxy Server to enter the proxy server settings.
    4Configure the following proxy server details:
    Field
    Description
    Proxy Host
    Host name of the outgoing proxy server that the Secure Agent uses.
    Proxy Port
    Port number of the outgoing proxy server.
    User Name
    User name to connect to the outgoing proxy server.
    Password
    Password to connect to the outgoing proxy server.
    5Click OK.
    6Log in to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services.
    7Open Administrator and select Runtime Environments.
    8Select the Secure Agent for which you want to configure a proxy server.
    9On the upper-right corner of the page, click Edit.
    10In the System Configuration Details section, select the Type as Agent for the CMI Streaming Agent Service.
    11To use a proxy server, add the following parameters in any JVMOption field and specify appropriate values for each parameter:
    Parameter
    Description
    -Dproxy.host=
    Host name of the outgoing HTTPS proxy server.
    -Dproxy.port=
    Port number of the outgoing HTTPS proxy server.
    -Dproxy.user=
    User name for the HTTPS proxy server.
    -Dproxy.password=
    Password for the HTTPS proxy server.
    Note: You must specify the parameter and the value for the parameter enclosed in single quotation marks.
    For example,
    JVMOption1='-Dproxy.host=INPQ8583WI29'
    JVMOption2='-Dproxy.port=8081'
    JVMOption3='-Dproxy.user=adminuser'
    JVMOption4='-Dproxy.password=password'
    Note: You can configure only five JVMOption fields in the System Configuration Details section. To configure the remaining parameters, you must add the JVMOption fields in the Custom Configuration Details section. In the Custom Configuration Details section, select the Type as Agent for the CMI Streaming Agent Service, add the JVMOption fields, and specify the remaining parameters and appropriate values for each parameter.
    12Click Save.
    The Secure Agent restarts to apply the settings.
    Note: The session log does not record the proxy server details even if you have configured a proxy server.

Configuring the proxy settings on Linux

If your organization uses an outgoing proxy server to connect to the Internet, the Secure Agent connects to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services through the proxy server.
You can update the proxy server settings defined for the Secure Agent from the command line. To configure the proxy server settings for the Secure Agent on a Linux machine, you must update the proxy.ini file and configure the JVM options of the Secure Agent.
Restriction: These steps do not work for Database Ingestion and Replication.
Contact your network administrator for the proxy settings.
    1 Navigate to the following directory:
    <Secure Agent installation directory>/apps/agentcore/conf
    2To update the proxy.ini file, add the following parameters and specify appropriate values for each parameter:
    InfaAgent.ProxyHost=<proxy_server_hostname>
    InfaAgent.ProxyPort=<proxy_server_port>
    InfaAgent.ProxyUser=<user_name>
    InfaAgent.ProxyPassword=<password>
    InfaAgent.ProxyPasswordEncrypted=false
    For example,
    InfaAgent.ProxyHost=INW2PF0MT01V
    InfaAgent.ProxyPort=808
    InfaAgent.ProxyUser=user06
    InfaAgent.ProxyPassword=user06
    InfaAgent.ProxyPasswordEncrypted=false
    3Log in to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services.
    4Open Administrator and select Runtime Environments.
    5Select the Secure Agent for which you want to configure a proxy server.
    6On the upper-right corner of the page, click Edit.
    7In the System Configuration Details section, select the Type as Agent for the CMI Streaming Agent Service.
    8To use a proxy server, add the following parameters in any JVMOption field and specify appropriate values for each parameter:
    Parameter
    Description
