    Enable the Binary Authorization service

    This page explains how to enable Binary Authorization in your deployer project.

    You first create or select a project. You enable Binary Authorization in the Google Cloud project where you deploy containers. This is the same project where you run your supported platforms , such as Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Cloud Run, or Google Distributed Cloud.

    To enable Binary Authorization, follow these steps:

    1. Sign in to your Google Cloud account. If you're new to Google Cloud, create an account to evaluate how our products perform in real-world scenarios. New customers also get $300 in free credits to run, test, and deploy workloads.

    2. In the Google Cloud console, on the project selector page, select or create a Google Cloud project.

      Roles required to select or create a project

      • Select a project : Selecting a project doesn't require a specific IAM role—you can select any project that you've been granted a role on.
      • Create a project : To create a project, you need the Project Creator role ( roles/resourcemanager.projectCreator ), which contains the resourcemanager.projects.create permission. Learn how to grant roles .

      Go to project selector

    3. Verify that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project .

    4. Enable the Binary Authorization API.

      Roles required to enable APIs

    5. Install the Google Cloud CLI.

    6. If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity .

    7. To initialize the gcloud CLI, run the following command:
