Answer 1

1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials
2. On the top left there is a blue "create credentials" button click it and select "service account key." (see below if its not there)
3. Choose the service account you want, and select "JSON" as the key type.
4. It should allow give you a json to download

If the blue button is not there:

You need to fill in all the required fields on the "OAuth Consent screen" tab on the page linked above, or create one if one doesn't exist.

You may also need to create a client-id if that still doesn't work (I can't remember sorry).

If "service account key" isn't an option

You need to create a service account.

Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts/project and click "Create Service Account"
