**Deprecations**

 - `key_password` - No longer used with `json_key_file`
 - `service_account` - No longer used with `json_key_file`

**Obsoletions**

 - `key_path` - Use `json_key_file` or Application Default Credentials (ADC) instead.
   See [the documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-outputs-google_cloud_storage.html#plugins-outputs-google_cloud_storage-key_path)
   for help about moving to JSON key files.
