Read csv from Google Cloud storage to pandas dataframe

Question

I am trying to read a csv file present on the Google Cloud Storage bucket onto a panda dataframe.

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import         


        

Answer 1

read_csv does not support gs://

From the documentation:

The string could be a URL. Valid URL schemes include http, ftp, s3, and file. For file URLs, a host is expected. For instance, a local file could be file ://localhost/path/to/table.csv

You can download the file or fetch it as a string in order to manipulate it.
