python - How to generate a Blob signed url in Google Cloud Run?

Question

Under Google Cloud Run, you can select which service account your container is running. Using the default compute service account fails to generate a signed url.

The work around listed here works on Google Cloud Compute -- if you allow all the scopes for the service account. There does not seem to be away to do that in Cloud Run (not that I can find).

https://github.com/googleapis/google-auth-library-python/issues/50

Things I have tried:

1. Assigned the service account the role: roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator
2. Verified the workaround in the same GCP project in a Virtual Machine (vs Cloud Run)
3. Verified the code works locally in the container with the service account loaded from private key (via json file).

from google.cloud import storage
client = storage.Client()
bucket = client.get_bucket('EXAMPLE_BUCKET')
blob = bucket.get_blob('libraries/image_1.png')
expires = datetime.now() + timedelta(seconds=86400)
blob.generate_signed_url(expiration=expires)

Fails with:

you need a private key to sign credentials.the credentials you are currently using <class 'google.auth.compute_engine.credentials.Credentials'> just contains a token. see https://googleapis.dev/python/google-api-core/latest/auth.html#setting-up-a-service-account for more details.
/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/google/cloud/storage/_signing.py, line 51, in ensure_signed_credentials

Trying to add the workaround,

Error calling the IAM signBytes API: 
{  "error": {  "code": 400,

    "message": "Request contains an invalid argument.",
    "status": "INVALID_ARGUMENT"  }
}
Exception Location: /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/google/auth/iam.py, line 81, in _make_signing_request

Workaround code as mention in Github issue:

from google.cloud import storage
from google.auth.transport import requests
from google.auth import compute_engine
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

def get_signing_creds(credentials):
    auth_request = requests.Request()
    print(credentials.service_account_email)
    signing_credentials = compute_engine.IDTokenCredentials(auth_request, "", service_account_email=credentials.ser
vice_account_email)
    return signing_credentials


client = storage.Client()
bucket = client.get_bucket('EXAMPLE_BUCKET')
blob = bucket.get_blob('libraries/image_1.png')
expires = datetime.now() + timedelta(seconds=86400)
signing_creds = get_signing_creds(client._credentials)
url = blob.generate_signed_url(expiration=expires, credentials=signing_creds)
print(url)

How do I generate a signed url under Google Cloud Run? At this point, it seems like I may have to mount the service account key which I wanted to avoid.

EDIT: To try and clarify, the service account has the correct permissions - it works in GCE and locally the JSON private key.
