Downloading Dataset with python google-cloud-storage sdk #677

Open Cing2 opened 1 year ago

Cing2 commented 1 year ago

I am trying to download the Waymo motion dataset v1.2 from the google bucket, using the python sdk but I am not able to get it to work. I know that it is possible to download it with gsutil, however I am running it on a server that does not have it installed.

Thus, I was trying to use the python sdk to download it. To use this I need a google project to use the sdk. Therefore, I made a service account to be able to login on the server. However, the problem is that the service account does not have right to the bucket as it does not own it.

Is it possible to download the dataset using python sdk? Or is gsutil the only option?

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in Waymo Open Dataset! While it may be possible, unfortunately we are only able to support gsutil and help with gsutil-related issues. Maybe other users can help with this question. Thanks for your understanding!

Best, Vincent
