You need to use those commands with the right path to make it work :

SET GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=FILE_PATH/credentials.json (name of the file)

SET GCLOUD_PROJECT=PROJECT_NAME

had set Google_application_credentials in the above way but didn't work, as for cloud_project couldn't install the cloud_sdk even that is giving error.
Did you correctly download the .json and placed it on your directory location?
Yes as given in the steps.. I authenticated in same way and downloaded the JSON. Am I facing the issue as I was unable to install gcloud sdk and set environment variable using gcloud sdk
