Description

We need to configure a storage service on lightning to enable every deployment to set up their preferred methods for storing exports. For this implementation, we will adopt Google Cloud Storage as default but eventually add AWS, Local Storage, and Azure.

  • If the storage is not configured by providing the right API keys, the feature should be disabled
  • Set up integration with Google Cloud Storage to allow reading and writing into storage buckets
  • If storage bucket is not configured, the export feature is disabled
  • Download URL should be a signed URL to ensure security

Research direction

Start by locating Lightning's export flow and deployment configuration, then identify where storage credentials, bucket access, and download URLs are handled. Done means Google Cloud Storage supports reading and writing exports, storage-dependent features are disabled when configuration is missing, and downloads use signed URLs.
