path_to_private_key = './gcs-project-354207-099ef6796af6.json'
client = storage.Client.from_service_account_json(json_credentials_path=path_to_private_key)
bucket = client.get_bucket('example-bucket-skytowner')
blob = bucket.blob('uploaded_sample.txt')
blob.upload_from_file('./sample.txt')
                
            
            AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'tell'

Here, the highlighted line is causing the error.

The fix is to use the method upload_from_filename(~) instead which expects the path of the file you wish to upload on GCS:


        
        
            
                
                
                    blob.upload_from_filename('./sample.txt')

On the other hand, the method upload_from_file(~) expects a file object, which can be obtained like so:


        
        
            
                
                
                    with open('./sample.txt', 'rb') as file:
    blob.upload_from_file(file)

Here, the second parameter 'rb' means that we wish to read the file in binary format, which is what the upload_from_file(~) method expects.
