Custom Google Cloud Storage ​

The Custom storage feature is available with the Plugin Expansion plan and higher.

If you're on the Plugin for Startup plan, consider upgrading to access this feature. For more details, visit our pricing page or contact support.

The Custom Cloud Storage feature in the Topol Plugin lets you connect your own storage provider. Alongside AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, and DigitalOcean Spaces, you can also use Google Cloud Storage — and this tutorial walks you through that setup, step by step. The final step downloads a JSON key file — keep it safe, as you'll need it to finish the setup in TOPOL.

How to configure custom Google Cloud Storage ​

1) Log in to the Google Cloud Console at https://console.cloud.google.com/.

2) Navigate to the Products section and click Create a storage bucket.
