The name of the service account you will need to assign permissions to is as following:<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>@appspot.gserviceaccount.com and will have been automatically created by Google App Engine. NOTE: this is done under IAM, selecting the account, choosing Permissions and then adding the role Compute Instance Admin (v1) to it; not under Service Accounts.
