Query parameters

Parameters
parent

string

The parent parameter's value depends on the target resource for the request, namely roles, projects, or organizations. Each resource type's parent value format is described below:

  • roles.list: An empty string. This method doesn't require a resource; it simply returns all predefined roles in IAM. Example request URL: https://iam.googleapis.com/v1/roles

  • projects.roles.list: projects/{PROJECT_ID}. This method lists all project-level custom roles. Example request URL: https://iam.googleapis.com/v1/projects/{PROJECT_ID}/roles

  • organizations.roles.list: organizations/{ORGANIZATION_ID}. This method lists all organization-level custom roles. Example request URL: https://iam.googleapis.com/v1/organizations/{ORGANIZATION_ID}/roles

Note: Wildcard (*) values are invalid; you must specify a complete project ID or organization ID.
