Part 1: Creating a GCS Bucket and Adding a File

1. On your local machine, create a text file with the following CSV contents and name it books.txt:

   Copy

   The Catcher in the Rye, J.D. Salinger, 1945
   Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen, 1813
   Of Mice and Men, John Steinbeck, 1937
   Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, 1818

2. In GCS, create a bucket and upload books.txt to the bucket. Also, create an HMAC key for authentication to the bucket, as SingleStore Pipelines only support that type of authentication to GCS.

   For information on working with GCS, refer to the Google Cloud Storage Documentation.

Once the books.txt file has been uploaded, you can proceed to the next part of the Quickstart.
