Hi @vparmeland,

The failure is related to auth configuration mechanism in GKE for gcsfuse-csi-driver. GCSFuse is behaving as expected, it requires application default credential to mount GCS bucket which is not there is your case, hence the failure.

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcs-fuse-csi-driver is the better place to create the issue.

Overall guide to access GCS bucket with gcsfuse CSI driver - https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/persistent-volumes/cloud-storage-fuse-csi-driver

Specifically GKE authentication using Workload Identity Federation: https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/persistent-volumes/cloud-storage-fuse-csi-driver#authentication

@vparmeland Was this issue resolved? please make sure cluster is setup correctly with workload identity, these requirements should be met for gcsfuse csi driver to work in addition to setting up bucket access as mentioned in previous comments.
