Enables a ServiceAccount
that was disabled by serviceAccounts.disable
.
If the service account is already enabled, then this method has no effect.
If the service account was disabled by other means—for example, if Google disabled the service account because it was compromised—you cannot use this method to enable the service account.
HTTP request
POST https://iam.googleapis.com/v1/{name=projects/*/serviceAccounts/*}:enable
The URL uses gRPC Transcoding syntax.
Path parameters
name
string
The resource name of the service account.
Use one of the following formats:
-
projects/{PROJECT_ID}/serviceAccounts/{EMAIL_ADDRESS} -
projects/{PROJECT_ID}/serviceAccounts/{UNIQUE_ID}
As an alternative, you can use the -
wildcard character instead of the project ID:
-
projects/-/serviceAccounts/{EMAIL_ADDRESS} -
projects/-/serviceAccounts/{UNIQUE_ID}
When possible, avoid using the -
wildcard character, because it can cause response messages to contain misleading error codes. For example, if you try to access the service account projects/-/serviceAccounts/fake@example.com
, which does not exist, the response contains an HTTP 403 Forbidden
error instead of a 404 Not
Found
error.
Authorization requires the following IAM
permission on the specified resource name
:
-
iam.serviceAccounts.enable
Request body
The request body must be empty.
Response body
If successful, the response body is an empty JSON object.
Authorization scopes
Requires one of the following OAuth scopes:
-
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/iam -
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
