NAME

gcloud iam service-accounts get-iam-policy - get the IAM policy for a service account

SYNOPSIS

gcloud iam service-accounts get-iam-policy SERVICE_ACCOUNT [--filter=EXPRESSION] [--limit=LIMIT] [--page-size=PAGE_SIZE] [--sort-by=[FIELD,...]] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

This command gets the IAM policy for a service account. If formatted as JSON, the output can be edited and used as a policy file for set-iam-policy. The output includes an "etag" field identifying the version emitted and allowing detection of concurrent policy updates; see $ gcloud iam service-accounts set-iam-policy for additional details.

If the service account does not exist, this command returns a PERMISSION_DENIED error.

When managing IAM roles, you can treat a service account either as a resource or as an identity. This command is to get the iam policy of a service account resource. There are other gcloud commands to manage IAM policies for other types of resources. For example, to manage IAM policies on a project, use the $ gcloud projects commands.

EXAMPLES

To print the IAM policy for a given service account, run:

$ gcloud iam service-accounts get-iam-policy \ my-iam-account@my-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

SERVICE_ACCOUNT

The service account whose policy to get. The account should be formatted either as a numeric service account ID or as an email, like this: 123456789876543212345 or my-iam-account@somedomain.com.

LIST COMMAND FLAGS

--filter=EXPRESSION

Apply a Boolean filter EXPRESSION to each resource item to be listed. If the expression evaluates True, then that item is listed. For more details and examples of filter expressions, run $ gcloud topic filters. This flag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order: --flatten, --sort-by, --filter, --limit.

--limit=LIMIT

Maximum number of resources to list. The default is unlimited. This flag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order: --flatten, --sort-by, --filter, --limit.

--page-size=PAGE_SIZE

Some services group resource list output into pages. This flag specifies the maximum number of resources per page. The default is determined by the service if it supports paging, otherwise it is unlimited (no paging). Paging may be applied before or after --filter and --limit depending on the service.

--sort-by=[FIELD,...]

Comma-separated list of resource field key names to sort by. The default order is ascending. Prefix a field with ``~'' for descending order on that field. This flag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order: --flatten, --sort-by, --filter, --limit.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS

These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

Run $ gcloud help for details.
