Daniel Broudy commented on JCLOUDS-518:
---------------------------------------

If i understand this correctly this is talking about the case where we are running Jclouds on an GCE instance in which case we could authenticate requests using the service account of the VM. Is this what you are requesting  [~mikolajz]?

> If configured, a GCE instance has access to an OAuth token for the project's service account. It's available through the http://metadata server. The details are described in https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/authentication . This feature request is to provide an API to retrieve this token.
