cirq_google.engine.get_engine_sampler(
    processor_id: str,
    gate_set_name: str,
    project_id: Optional[str] = None
) -> "cirq_google.QuantumEngineSampler"

This uses the environment variable GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT for the Engine project_id, unless set explicitly.

Args
processor_id	Engine processor ID (from Cloud console or <a href="../../cirq_google/engine/Engine#list_processors"><code>Engine.list_processors</code></a>).
gate_set_name	One of ['sqrt_iswap', 'sycamore']. See cirq_google.NAMED_GATESETS.
project_id	Optional explicit Google Cloud project id. Otherwise, this defaults to the environment variable GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT. By using an environment variable, you can avoid hard-coding personal project IDs in shared code.

Returns
A QuantumEngineSampler instance.

Raises
ValueError	If the supplied gate set is not a supported gate set name.
EnvironmentError	If no project_id is specified and the environment variable GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT is not set.
