Sets the IAM access control policy for the specified Project.
CAUTION: This method will replace the existing policy, and cannot be used to append additional IAM settings.
NOTE: Removing service accounts from policies or changing their roles can render services completely inoperable. It is important to understand how the service account is being used before removing or updating its roles.
For additional information about resource
(e.g. my-project-id) structure and identification, see Resource Names.
The following constraints apply when using setIamPolicy()
:
Project does not support
allUsers
andallAuthenticatedUsers
asmembers
in aBinding
of aPolicy
.The owner role can be granted to a
user
,serviceAccount
, or a group that is part of an organization. For example, group@myownpersonaldomain.com could be added as an owner to a project in the myownpersonaldomain.com organization, but not the examplepetstore.com organization.Service accounts can be made owners of a project directly without any restrictions. However, to be added as an owner, a user must be invited via Cloud Platform console and must accept the invitation.
A user cannot be granted the owner role using
setIamPolicy()
. The user must be granted the owner role using the Cloud Platform Console and must explicitly accept the invitation.You can only grant ownership of a project to a member by using the Google Cloud console. Inviting a member will deliver an invitation email that they must accept. An invitation email is not generated if you are granting a role other than owner, or if both the member you are inviting and the project are part of your organization.
If the project is not part of an organization, there must be at least one owner who has accepted the Terms of Service (ToS) agreement in the policy. Calling
setIamPolicy()
to remove the last ToS-accepted owner from the policy will fail. This restriction also applies to legacy projects that no longer have owners who have accepted the ToS. Edits to IAM policies will be rejected until the lack of a ToS-accepting owner is rectified. If the project is part of an organization, you can remove all owners, potentially making the organization inaccessible.
Authorization requires the Google IAM permission resourcemanager.projects.setIamPolicy
on the project
