Example on how to create a signed URL using Node.js for uploading a file to Google Cloud Storage
var gcloud = require('gcloud');
var uuid = require('uuid');
// Google Cloud Storage Bucket Name
const BUCKET_NAME = 'bucket-name';
// Google Developer Console project ID
const PROJECT_ID = 'project-1234';
/* Google Developer Console -> API Manager -> Credentials ->
Add credentials -> Service account -> JSON -> Create */
const KEY_FILENAME = 'project-0d3d97832ca7.json' // relative path
const SECONDS = 1000; // seconds in milliseconds
const URL_VALID_DURATION = 30 * SECONDS;
var gcs = gcloud.storage({
projectId: PROJECT_ID,
keyFilename: KEY_FILENAME
});
var filename = uuid.v4(); // v4 is a random uuid
var file = gcs.bucket(BUCKET_NAME).file(filename);
file.getSignedUrl({
// More documention on options at
// https://googlecloudplatform.github.io/gcloud-node/#/docs/v0.24.1/storage/file?method=getSignedUrl
action: 'write',
expires: Date.now() * URL_VALID_DURATION
}, function (err, url) {
if (err) {
console.error(err);
return;
}
console.log("URL");
console.log("-----");
console.log(url);
console.log("-----");
console.log("PUT to this URL to upload to Google Cloud Storage as " + filename);
});

Should that be a + on line 26 instead of a *.
