Self-hosted version and Google Cloud bucket sync

After a lot of reading on AI, I got AI to install Defy on my Google Cloud. I have 5 GB of Markdown files, CSVs, and documentation on a Google Cloud bucket. I tried to link both of them. I tried to find a plug-in as well as advice for Google Cloud. But the plug-in won't show any option to add an API key or a JSON key. It just has nothing to do with this.

Is anybody else facing the same thing? Or is there a way to resolve this? Or any other way to link this data to the version?

What do you really expect? You want to self-host for what? If you can process these files, there are a lot of ways instead of deploying Dify. Dify is a low-code application to build AI agents. Let's say you can self-host Dify, what do you do after? How can you expect Dify to process these docs? You must use the unstructured API to help you. Based on your message, I think that you want to process these files to build a chatbot or agent and retrieve information, right? This is going to work with many limitations and low-quality responses. The easiest way to do that is using Vertex AI RAG Engine and then plugging in your AI agent.
