How do I allow my GCP Load Balancer to access a Bucket in another project?

I am trying to configure my load balancer to point to a bucket in another project. The projects are

I create the bucket in my-infra and then I add the default App Engine service account to it as a user. The bucket is also public since it will be housing our static site data. However, when I try to create a load balancer in my-dev and point it at the bucket it fails saying...

Operation type [update] failed with message “The Cloud Storage bucket ‘my-bucket’ is not owned by the current project ‘my-dev’.”

This is true it isn't owned by that project because it is in infra and it will be referenced by multiple projects. How do I point my load balancer at the bucket in the other project?

I see there are some ACL commands but since I am using IAM I don't think the ACL commands will work.

There is a feature called Cross-Project Service Referencing but at the moment, this is not supported by Global external HTTP(S) Load Balancers. And Cloud Storage only supports Global external HTTP(S) load balancers which means that what you are currently trying to achieve isn't feasible at the moment.

A feature request has been raised for the set up that you are going for. To keep track of the status/progress of this feature request, please follow this feature request link and click the +1 and the star button to get notified about its update(s).
