Solved: Cloud Load Balancer: Cannot find backend bucket - Page 2

georges-g · 08-25-2023 02:42 AM

Hello,

I am creating a Cloud Load Balancer, it's regional external, with a static IP and serving HTTP (I cannot activate HTTPS at the moment, will do later).

I would like to serve a Google Cloud Storage Bucket from the load balancer.

From the documentation, I should have a backend bucket option in Backend Configuration > Create a backend service.

I cannot find this backend bucket option, the only things I have are:

Instance group
Zonal Network Endpoint Group (NEG)
Internet NEG
Private service NEG
Serverless NEG
Hybrid NEG

Am I missing something?

Typing this, I realize I should try a "Classic Application Load Balancer" to see if I have this option. I keep you updated.

Thank you for contacting us. Backend buckets are not supported for regional external application load balancer. You can find the list of allowed backends at [1] under references.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know.
