# Google Cloud Momentum uses google secret manager to securely manage API keys.\ \ Since you have already created a firebase app, a linked google cloud account will automatically be created. You can use that or create a new one as per your convience.\ \ Use [these](https://cloud.google.com/python/docs/reference/secretmanager/latest) steps to setup secret manager, and setup [application default credentials](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/provide-credentials-adc#how-to) for momentum to use in your local system. (Alternative documentation [here](https://googleapis.dev/python/google-api-core/latest/auth.html))\ \ Once that is done - that's all you need to do for google account setup. Only a few more steps before you can get momentum up and running. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
