An Identity and Access Management (IAM) policy, which specifies access controls for Google Cloud resources.
A Policy
is a collection of bindings
. A binding
binds one or more members
to a single role
. Members can be user accounts, service accounts, Google groups, and domains (such as G Suite). A role
is a named list of permissions; each role
can be an IAM predefined role or a user-created custom role.
Optionally, a binding
can specify a condition
, which is a logical expression that allows access to a resource only if the expression evaluates to true
. A condition can add constraints based on attributes of the request, the resource, or both.
JSON example:
{
"bindings": [
{
"role": "roles/resourcemanager.organizationAdmin",
"members": [
"user:mike@example.com",
"group:admins@example.com",
"domain:google.com",
"serviceAccount:my-project-id@appspot.gserviceaccount.com"
]
},
{
"role": "roles/resourcemanager.organizationViewer",
"members": ["user:eve@example.com"],
"condition": {
"title": "expirable access",
"description": "Does not grant access after Sep 2020",
"expression": "request.time < timestamp('2020-10-01T00:00:00.000Z')",
}
}
],
"etag": "BwWWja0YfJA=",
"version": 3
}
YAML example:
bindings:
- members:
- user:mike@example.com
- group:admins@example.com
- domain:google.com
- serviceAccount:my-project-id@appspot.gserviceaccount.com
role: roles/resourcemanager.organizationAdmin
- members:
- user:eve@example.com
role: roles/resourcemanager.organizationViewer
condition:
title: expirable access
description: Does not grant access after Sep 2020
expression: request.time < timestamp('2020-10-01T00:00:00.000Z')
- etag: BwWWja0YfJA=
- version: 3

The condition that is associated with this binding. NOTE: An unsatisfied condition will not allow user access via current binding. Different bindings, including their conditions, are examined independently. |
Expr
Represents a textual expression in the Common Expression Language (CEL) syntax. CEL is a C-like expression language. The syntax and semantics of CEL are documented at https://github.com/google/cel-spec.
Example (Comparison):
title: "Summary size limit"
description: "Determines if a summary is less than 100 chars"
expression: "document.summary.size() < 100"
Example (Equality):
title: "Requestor is owner"
description: "Determines if requestor is the document owner"
expression: "document.owner == request.auth.claims.email"
Example (Logic):
title: "Public documents"
description: "Determine whether the document should be publicly visible"
expression: "document.type != 'private' && document.type != 'internal'"
Example (Data Manipulation):
title: "Notification string"
description: "Create a notification string with a timestamp."
expression: "'New message received at ' + string(document.create_time)"
The exact variables and functions that may be referenced within an expression are determined by the service that evaluates it. See the service documentation for additional information.

Fields | |
---|---|
expression |
Textual representation of an expression in Common Expression Language syntax. |
title |
Optional. Title for the expression, i.e. a short string describing its purpose. This can be used e.g. in UIs which allow to enter the expression. |
description |
Optional. Description of the expression. This is a longer text which describes the expression, e.g. when hovered over it in a UI. |
location |
Optional. String indicating the location of the expression for error reporting, e.g. a file name and a position in the file. |
