Google Analytics and Google Cloud - what is the. link - google-cloud-platform

We are exploring Google Analytics / Reporting APIs and have noticed that it forwards to the screen where we are asked to create/associate a project in google cloud interface and enable APIs.
We are struggling to understand the link between GA and Google Cloud. So there are things below we are trying to determine.
How is the Google project linked to the clients GA account. Do I need to somehow link it in the project screen.
Once in the Google project screen (Google Cloud Platform) how do I set up the API and get the OAuth and token needed to the API Call
In google cloud analytics dashboard what data will I see. Is it only Google Cloud services or actual GA Data.
GA and Google Cloud APIs how will they be connected. How will GA use these Credentials and both will be linked. If support GA is tracking my website usage or access data. What will enablement of these APIs do in that regard. There is no specific example showing that.
Any advice you can provide would really help me.
thanks,
Aakash

Do I have to use Google Cloud Platform to integrate Android zero-touch enrollment API?

I've already developed an EMM solution that migrated on Microsoft Azure. Now, I want to integrate Android zero-touch enrollment API and Android Management API into my solution. According to the document, I can use Google Cloud Platform to run the API, but is it compulsory? If I use it, all my new create data will save on Google Cloud, so can I move those data to my current Azure?
To call the API you will need a GCP account as mentioned in the documentation you shared.
However this is only required to call the API. If ou want your application to be hosted on a different cloud that can work, just need the GCP account to generate the API key in order to use the Zero-touch API.

Is it needed to activate Google Cloud first to use IdP functionality of Google?

I'm trying to use Google as my IdP (OIDC) for Anypoint Platform, I was able to get into the google login site using my Anypoint Platform domain link, however when I logged in to my Google Account it does not direct to the Anypoint Platform site, it only shows "The request could not be processed" page, so I was thinking maybe it is because I have not yet activated the Google Cloud. Is the activation of google cloud required to use the Idp functionality? Thanks.

Google Cloud (API GATEWAY) Custom Domain

I am currently building a rest api, for this I am using Google Cloud API Gateway and Google Cloud Run. I've been looking at all the google cloud documentation and researching elsewhere and I can't find how to add a custom domain to an API gateway instance. The funny thing is that there is more documentation for Google Cloud endpoints, I could find how to do it with endpoints but it does not apply to my use case.
I have 10 instances of google cloud run each one running a microservice respectively and I want to join everything in a single domain and add support with openapi, but I have failed in the attempt.
In any case, if someone has managed to customize the domain of an api gateway instance, I would appreciate if you could guide me, greetings.
For the beta release, custom domain names are not supported on GCP for API Gateway. Since it is still beta as of today, if you want to use a custom domain, you could use Cloud Endpoints in Cloud Run or you could even look into using Microservices in App Engine.

Can a Google Cloud Printer send the output to a web service?

I was wondering if google cloud print can be configured to send to a custom web service. I was thinking about sending documents that need to be OCR'd to my web service to process. Can this be done directly with google cloud print?
Yes. You'll essentially create a Google Cloud Print printer, in software. When the new print job arrives (a PDF with metadata) then you do whatever you want to with it.
The API documentation is very clear
Some example code (Go) can be found in the official Google Cloud Print CUPS Connector
More example code (Python) can be found in the Google Cloudprint Proxy
The GCP Developers mailing list is useful
