- NAME
-
- gcloud auth print-access-token - print an access token for the specified account
- SYNOPSIS
-
-
gcloud auth print-access-token
[ACCOUNT
] [--lifetime
=LIFETIME
] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …
]
-
- DESCRIPTION
-
Print an access token for the specified account. See RFC6749 for more information
about access tokens.
Note that token itself may not be enough to access some services. If you use the token with curl or similar tools, you may see permission errors similar to "API has not been used in project 32555940559 before or it is disabled.". If it happens, you may need to provide a quota project in the "X-Goog-User-Project" header. For example,
curl -H "X-Goog-User-Project: your-project" -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" foo.googleapis.com
The identity that granted the token must have the serviceusage.services.use permission on the provided project. See https://cloud.google.com/apis/docs/system-parameters for more information.
- EXAMPLES
-
To print access tokens:
gcloud auth print-access-token
- POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
- [
ACCOUNT
] - Account to get the access token for. If not specified, the current active account will be used.
- [
- FLAGS
-
--lifetime
=LIFETIME
-
Access token lifetime. The default access token lifetime is 3600 seconds, but
you can use this flag to reduce the lifetime or extend it up to 43200 seconds
(12 hours). The org policy constraint
constraints/iam.allowServiceAccountCredentialLifetimeExtension
must be set if you want to extend the lifetime beyond 3600 seconds. Note that this flag is for service account impersonation only, so it must be used together with the--impersonate-service-account
flag.
