FortiPortal - Public key authentication
In the GCP environment I set up the VM where I installed the ova file downloaded directly from the Support Fortinet site (see below for example)
After installation I tried logging in with the default credentials both in SSH and from the GUI but I get this error when logging in
Thank everyone in advance!

Issue resolved the systems managing the VMs on GCP did not have the serial console port enabled (see below)
Notice: The first time you launch the portal, you will only have access via the console

After discussing the matter with the administrators managing GCP, we had a public/private RSA key pair generated.
Follow the steps below to associate the public key on the vm instance and NOT on the project on GCP
VM INSTANCE DETAIL -> EDIT -> YOU HAVE ONE SSH KEY
Copy the key inside the space, at the end of the key insert admin (see image below) , click on save.
After these operations you should see the following on the vm dashboard see image belowGCP vm details
After this go to Putty and import the private key and test the SSH connection to FortiPortal
