Isn't with key file implied? Is there any way to do it without a key file?

All the three auth samples added here are to show how to authenticate with endpoints without a key file.

### Using the App Engine default service account client (no key file needed)

The App Engine default service account client demonstrates how to use the Google App Engine default service account to authenticate to endpoints.
We refer to the project that serves API requests as the server project. You also need to create a client project in the [Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com). The client project is running Google App Engine standard application.

To use the App Engine default service account for authentication:

1. Update the `gae_default_service_account`'s `x-issuer` and `x-jwks_uri` in `swagger.yaml` with your client project ID.
2. Redeploy your server application.
3. Update clients/service_to_service_gae_default/main.py, replace 'YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID' and 'YOUR-SERVER-PROJECT-ID' with your client project ID and your server project ID.
4. Upload your application to Google App Engine by invoking the following command. Note that you need to provide project ID in the command because there are two projects (server and client projects) here and gcloud needs to know which project to pick.

gcloud app deploy app.yaml --project=<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>

Your client app is now deployed at https://<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>.appspot.com. When you access https://<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>.appspot.com, your client calls your server project API using
the client's service account.

Is this a common use case? Seems rather convoluted?

I think it is a common use case. Every project has a a App Engine default service account, This samples shows how to make authenticated API calls from a cloud project. In the associated bug, Mingliang mentioned that our customers have complained having to manage keys that are shipped with their applications, so we added a few samples here to show how to make authenticated calls without a key file.

Yeah but in this case you're actually using the app engine app to create a new keyfile and use it on-the-fly. This seems like a pretty convoluted and advanced use case. Have we had users ask explicitly for this use case?

According to Mingliang, the main complain from customers is that they need to manage key rotation. In this case, the key is not managed by the users but the cloud itself, which solves the issue.


The service account client demonstrates how to use a non-default service account to authenticate to endpoints.
We refer to the project that serves API requests as the server project. You also need to create a client project in the [Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com).
The client project is running Google App Engine standard application.

In the example, we use Google Cloud Identity and Access Management (IAM) API to create a JSON Web Token (JWT) for a service account, and use it to call an Endpoints API.

To use the client, you will need to enable "Service Account Actor" role for App Engine default service account:
1. Go to [IAM page] of your client project (https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/iam).
2. For App Engine default service account, from “Role(s)” drop-down menu, select “Project”-“Service Account Actor”, and Save.

You also need to install Google API python library because the client code (main.py) uses googleapiclient,
which is a python library that needs to be uploaded to App Engine with your application code. After you run "pip install -t lib -r requirements",
Google API python client library should have already been installed under 'lib' directory. Additional information can be found
[here](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/using-libraries-python-27#requesting_a_library).

To use the client for authentication:
1. Update the `google_service_account`'s `x-issuer` and `x-jwks_uri` in `swagger.yaml` with your service account email.
2. Redeploy your server application.
3. Update clients/service_to_service_non_default/main.py, replace 'YOUR-SERVICE-ACCOUNT-EMAIL', 'YOUR-SERVER-PROJECT-ID' and 'YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID'
with your service account email, your server project ID, and your client project ID.
4. Upload your application to Google App Engine by invoking the following command. Note that you need to provide project ID in the command because there are two projects (server and client projects) here and gcloud needs to know which project to pick.

gcloud app deploy app.yaml --project=<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>

Your client app is now deployed at https://<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>.appspot.com. When you access https://<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>.appspot.com, your client calls your server project API using
the client's service account.

### Using the ID token client (no key file needed)

This example demonstrates how to authenticate to endpoints from Google App Engine default service account using Google ID token.
In the example, we first create a JSON Web Token (JWT) using the App Engine default service account. We then request a Google
ID token using the JWT, and call an Endpoints API using the Google ID token.

We refer to the project that serves API requests as the server project. You also need to create a client project in the [Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com).
The client project is running Google App Engine standard application.

To use the client for authentication:
1. Update the `google_id_token`'s audiences, replace `YOUR-SERVER-PROJECT-ID` with your server project ID.
2. Redeploy your server application.
3. Update clients/service_to_service_google_id_token/main.py, replace 'YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID' and 'YOUR-SERVER-PROJECT-ID' with your client project ID and your server project ID.
4. Upload your application to Google App Engine by invoking the following command. Note that you need to provide project ID in the command because there are two projects (server and client projects) here and gcloud needs to know which project to pick.

gcloud app deploy app.yaml --project=<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>

Your client app is now deployed at https://<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>.appspot.com. When you access https://<YOUR-CLIENT-PROJECT-ID>.appspot.com, your client calls your server project API from
the client's service account using Google ID token.
