Reference documentation and code samples for the Access Approval V1 API module Google::Cloud::AccessApproval::V1::AccessApproval.
This API allows a customer to manage accesses to cloud resources by Google personnel. It defines the following resource model:
- The API has a collection of
ApprovalRequest
resources, named
approvalRequests/{approval_request} - The API has top-level settings per Project/Folder/Organization, named
accessApprovalSettings
The service also periodically emails a list of recipients, defined at the Project/Folder/Organization level in the accessApprovalSettings, when there is a pending ApprovalRequest for them to act on. The ApprovalRequests can also optionally be published to a Pub/Sub topic owned by the customer (contact support if you would like to enable Pub/Sub notifications).
ApprovalRequests can be approved or dismissed. Google personnel can only access the indicated resource or resources if the request is approved (subject to some exclusions: https://cloud.google.com/access-approval/docs/overview#exclusions).
Note: Using Access Approval functionality will mean that Google may not be able to meet the SLAs for your chosen products, as any support response times may be dramatically increased. As such the SLAs do not apply to any service disruption to the extent impacted by Customer's use of Access Approval. Do not enable Access Approval for projects where you may require high service availability and rapid response by Google Cloud Support.
After a request is approved or dismissed, no further action may be taken on it. Requests with the requested_expiration in the past or with no activity for 14 days are considered dismissed. When an approval expires, the request is considered dismissed.
If a request is not approved or dismissed, we call it pending.
