You can securely connect GitHub Actions to Google Cloud using the Google GitHub Action called `auth`. It supports two main ways: the recommended Workload Identity Federation (WIF), which uses short-lived tokens and avoids long-lived service account keys, and the older Service Account Key JSON method. WIF improves security by creating a trust link between your GitHub workflow and Google Cloud without exposing permanent credentials. To use it, you set up a Workload Identity Pool and Provider in Google Cloud, then configure your GitHub workflow to authenticate with these. This lets your workflows access Google Cloud resources safely and easily, reducing risks and simplifying credential management.

You can get free subdomains for personal or open-source projects from Open Domains by registering through their GitHub repository. They offer several domain options with strong security features like SSL, HTTPS, and DNSSEC, ensuring your site is safe and reliable. You submit a pull request with your subdomain details, and after approval, your domain is ready to use, usually within minutes. This service is great if you want a free, easy-to-set-up web address for your project without buying a domain, saving you money and effort while maintaining good security and performance. Donations help keep the service running.
