I implemented a few tasks with BashOperator. Ones with "gsutil rm" and "gsutil cp" worked fine. But one with "gcloud alpha firestore export" generates this error:

{bash_operator.py:101} INFO - ERROR: (gcloud.alpha.firestore.export) PERMISSION_DENIED: The caller does not have permission

This command itself works fine in gcloud shell. I tried to give some Firestore related permissions to the service account used by the Composer but it still doesn't work. Any idea

It might be that you don't have permissions for a particular project.

The error I was getting was: PERMISSION_DENIED: Caller does not have required permission to use project project:random-id-11111.

The way I resolved it was by running gcloud config set project 'the-right-project-id' and then the actual gcloud command.
