This document explains how to turn off Gemini for Google Cloud products, including the following:

Before you begin

• To update a Gemini for Google Cloud subscription, make sure you have the billing.subscriptions.update Identity and Access Management (IAM) permission. The billing.subscriptions.update permission is included in the roles/billing.admin IAM role, or you can add the permission to a custom role.

         --member=PRINCIPAL --role=roles/cloudaicompanion.user
      

      Replace PRINCIPAL with the identifier for the principal. The identifier takes the form user|group|serviceAccount:email or domain:domain—for example, user:[e-mail], group:[e-mail], serviceAccount:[e-mail], or domain:example.domain.com.

      The output is a list of policy bindings.
