Permission denied error with Cloud Datastore

[bwnyasse]

Description:
I encountered a Permission denied error while executing my test code to interact with Cloud Datastore. I have assigned the owner role to the service account used for authentication. However, I am still unable to access the Datastore resources and perform operations within the project. I would appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue.

What I am doing in my app:

1. Load the service account credentials from the file.
2. Authenticate the client using the service account credentials and the necessary scopes (datastore.Datastore.Scopes).
3. Execute the loadStockConfiguration() function, which internally uses the DatastoreDB and dbService.commit methods.
4. Observe the Permission denied error with the following stack trace:

Unhandled exception:
DetailedApiRequestError(status: 403, message: Permission denied on resource project learning-sandbox.)
#0      validateResponse (package:_discoveryapis_commons/src/api_requester.dart:306:9)

dart-lang/labs#18      DatastoreImpl.commit.<anonymous closure> (package:gcloud/src/datastore_impl.dart:354:57)
<asynchronous suspension>

Additional Context:

• The service account assigned to the code has the owner role.
• Here is my wip

Any guidance or assistance in resolving this issue related to Cloud Datastore would be greatly appreciated.

I was able to make it work.

The documentation suggests instantiating the DatastoreDB object using the project name prefixed with s~, like this:

var db = new DatastoreDB(
    new datastore.Datastore(client, 's~my-project'));

However, I discovered that removing the s~ and using the project ID instead of the project name resolved the issue for me. Therefore, I suggest updating the documentation to clarify that the project ID should be used instead of the project name.

var db = new DatastoreDB(
    new datastore.Datastore(client, 'my-project-id'));
