Workload Identity

If you have configured Workload Identity and want to use it for a PubSub EventSource, leave credentialSecret nil.

Full spec is available here.

See a PubSub EventSource example.

Running With PubSub Emulator

You can point this event source at the PubSub Emulator by configuring the PUBSUB_EMULATOR_HOST environment variable for the event source pod. This can be configured on the EventSource resource under the spec.template.container.env key. This option is also documented in the PubSub EventSource example.
