Explanation:
The correct answer is A: Enable the Cloud Pub/Sub API in the API Library on the GCP Console. Before your App Engine application can interact with the Cloud Pub/Sub service, you need to ensure that the Cloud Pub/Sub API is enabled in your Google Cloud project. Without enabling the API, your service account will not be able to access the Cloud Pub/Sub functionalities, and hence your application will not be able to send or consume messages.
