Troubleshooting¶

OIDC Problem¶

I had the same issue here was my fix:

Diagnosis: Generating OIDC tokens currently does not support custom domains in the audience parameter. I was using a custom domain for my cloud run service (https://my-service.my-domain.com) instead of the cloud run generated url (found in the cloud run service dashboard) that looks like this: https://XXXXXX.run.app

Masking behavior: In the task being enqueued to Cloud Tasks, If the audience field for the oidc_token is not explicitly set then the target url from the task is used to set the audience in the request for the OIDC token.

In my case this meant that enqueueing a task to be sent to the target https://my-service.my-domain.com/resource the audience for the generating the OIDC token was set to my custom domain https://my-service.my-domain.com/resource. Since custom domains are not supported when generating OIDC tokens, I was receiving 401 not authorized responses from the target service.

My fix: Explicitly populate the audience with the Cloud Run generated URL, so that a valid token is issued. In my client I was able to globally set the audience for all tasks targeting a given service with the base url: 'audience' : 'https://XXXXXX.run.app'. This generated a valid token. I did not need to change the url of the target resource itself. The resource stayed the same: 'url' : 'https://my-service.my-domain.com/resource'
