I’m using GCP, which requires me to use a keyfile of theirs rather than an ssh key . . . I have created a custom credential but when I create a project I can’t use that custom credential since it’s not a Source Control credential. Any advice out there?

Thanks!  
Guy

Thanks, but that URL doesn’t explain how to use a “Custom Credential” as an SCM Credential for a project . . .
