should we advertize service accounts ? #3

As github actions can be run on regular basis, would it make sense to advertise the 2 existing routes to create the json credential files:

ee.Authenticate (done)
a service account key

I personnaly only use json keys as it's preventing from accident. If anything goes wrong I switch off the key from my google console and I stop paying for unwanted jobs.

Yes, definitely! and also workload identify federation (Xee is using it). I aggregated this issue into #5.
