Blob could not be converted to unicode in my Cloud...

Hello

I have this Pyhton Cloud Function :

from google.cloud import storage

def fileUpload(event, context):
    
    file_data = event
    bucket_name = file_data['bucket']
    file_name = file_data['name']
    
    print(type(file_name))
    print(f"Bucket name: {bucket_name}")
    print(f"File name: {file_name}")
    
    client = storage.Client()
    source_bucket = client.bucket(bucket_name)
    destination_bucket = client.bucket(bucket_name)
    source_blob = source_bucket.blob(file_name)
    destination_blob = source_bucket.blob("copy")
    
    destination_generation_match_precondition = 0
    
    blob_copy = source_bucket.copy_blob(
        source_blob, destination_bucket, destination_blob, if_generation_match=destination_generation_match_precondition,
    )

And I got this error :

Hello @aalshikhley,

Take a look at this documentation.

Try changing your destination_blob to a string as stated in the documentation. Also, take a look at this Stackoverflow Post as you might have the same problem.

If the above option doesn't work, you can contact Google Cloud Support to further look into your case. Hope it helps, thanks!
