Hello Rupesh,

When you mount your storage bucket using gcsfuse, it restricts file system access to the user who mounted the file system. If you like to provide access to other users, you can override this behaviors with the allow_other mount option along with the --uid and --gid flags. However, keep in mind that this may have security implications. For more information on gcsfuse you can refer to this link [1].

I hope that helps.
