# Specifying Settings for Google Cloud Repository

If you have selected to import backup from a Google Cloud storage repository, specify settings to connect to the storage:

1. [Specify account settings](#storage).
2. [Specify bucket settings](#bucket).

## Specifying Account Settings {#storage}

The **Account** step of the wizard is available if you have chosen to import backup from a Google Cloud storage repository.

To connect to the Google Cloud storage, in the **Access key** and **Secret key** fields, specify the Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) key associated with the Google Cloud account. Veeam Agent will use the HMAC key to authenticate requests to the Google Cloud storage. For more information on Google Cloud accounts, see the [Google Cloud documentation](https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/creating-managing-service-accounts#creating_a_service_account).
