Access control with IAM

By default, only project owners and editors can create, update, delete, or invoke Cloud Run resources, and only project owners and Cloud Run Admins can modify Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies—for example, to make a service public. Refer to Cloud Run IAM roles for details.

To grant other principals or groups the ability to perform these actions, use IAM to grant rolesto different principals .

If you've created or deployed functions using gcloud functions commands or the Cloud Functions v2 APIs and need to use these options for backward compatibility, see Access control with IAM .

Cloud Run predefined roles

Compared to basic roles (Owner, Editor, and Viewer), the following predefined roles have finer-grained access control for accessing Cloud Run resources:

Role Description
Cloud Run Admin ( roles/run.admin ) Can create, update, and delete services, jobs, and worker pools, can get, list, delete job executions.
Can invoke services and jobs, can cancel job executions.
Can get and set IAM policies.
Can view, apply and dismiss recommendations .
Requires additional configuration in order to deploy services.
Cloud Run Developer ( roles/run.developer ) Can create, update, and delete services, jobs, and worker pools, can get, list, delete job executions.
Can get but not set IAM policies.
Can view, apply and dismiss recommendations .
Cloud Run Viewer ( roles/run.viewer ) Can view services, jobs, job executions, and worker pools.
Can get IAM policies.
Can view recommendations .
Cloud Run Invoker ( roles/run.invoker ) Can invoke services and jobs, can cancel job executions.
Cloud Run Source Developer ( roles/run.sourceDeveloper ) Can deploy and manage Cloud Run source-deployed resources.
Cloud Run Builder ( roles/run.builder ) Can build Cloud Run functions and source-deployed services.
Cloud Run Service Invoker ( roles/run.servicesInvoker ) Can invoke Cloud Run services.
Cloud Run Jobs Executor ( roles/run.jobsExecutor ) Can execute and cancel Cloud Run jobs.
Cloud Run Jobs Executor With Overrides ( roles/run.jobsExecutorWithOverrides ) Can execute and cancel Cloud Run jobs with overrides.

Control access on an individual Cloud Run resource

You can control access on a per-service, per-job, or per-worker-pool basis using IAM.

gcloud

Use the following command:

gcloud  
run  
services  
get-iam-policy  
 SERVICE_NAME 

Control access on all Cloud Run resources in a project

If you want to grant roles to principals on allservices and jobs in a project, you can use project-level IAM .

Console

  1. Go to the Google Cloud console:

    Go to Google Cloud console

  2. Find the principal you want to grant a project-wide role.

  3. Click the edit Pencilon the right side of the principal's row.

  4. Click Add another roleand pick the needed role.

  5. Click Save.

gcloud

Use the gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding command:

gcloud  
projects  
add-iam-policy-binding  
 PROJECT_ID 
  
 \ 
  
--member = 
 PRINCIPAL 
  
 \ 
  
--role = 
 ROLE 

Replace the following:

  • PROJECT_ID : the ID of your Google Cloud project.
  • PRINCIPAL : the principal (for example, user:email@domain.com ).
  • ROLE : the role (for example, roles/run.admin ).

Replace the following:

  • SERVICE_NAME : the service name (for example, my-service ).
  • PRINCIPAL : the principal (for example, user:email@domain.com ).
  • ROLE : the role (for example, roles/run.invoker ).
  • REGION : the region (for example, europe-west1 ).
  • KEY = VALUE : a condition to include in the binding. The --condition flag must include the key-value pairs expression and title .

The allUsers and allAuthenticatedUsers principal types can't be applied at the project level, and instead must be added to each service individually.

Make a service public

There are two ways to create a public Cloud Run service:

  • Disable the Cloud Run Invoker IAM check (recommended).
  • Assign the Cloud Run Invoker IAM role to the allUsers member type.

Required roles

To disable or re-enable the Invoker IAM check on a service, you must have the following permissions:

  • run.services.create
  • run.services.update
  • run.services.setIamPolicy

These permissions are included in the Cloud Run Admin ( roles/run.admin ) role. See Cloud Run IAM roles for the full list of roles and their associated permissions.

Disable the Cloud Run Invoker IAM check

The recommended way to make a public service is to disable the Cloud Run Invoker IAM check. Cloud Run enforces this check by default. Use this solution when the project is subject to the domain restricted sharing constraint in an organization policy .

To disable the check:

Console

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Cloud Run page:

    Go to Cloud Run

  2. Click Create Serviceif you are configuring a new service, then fill out the initial service settings page as needed.

    If you are configuring an existing service, click the service, then click the Securitytab.

  3. Select Allow public access.

  4. Click Createor Save.

gcloud

  • For a new service, use the gcloud run deploy command with the --no-invoker-iam-check flag:

    gcloud  
    run  
    deploy  
     SERVICE_NAME 
      
    --no-invoker-iam-check

    Replace SERVICE_NAME with the service name.

  • For an existing service, use the gcloud run services update command with the --no-invoker-iam-check flag:

    gcloud  
    run  
    services  
    update  
     SERVICE_NAME 
      
    --no-invoker-iam-check

Replace SERVICE_NAME with the service name.

YAML

  1. To view and download the configuration:

    gcloud  
    run  
    services  
    describe  
     SERVICE 
      
    --format  
     export 
      
    >  
    service.yaml
  2. Update the run.googleapis.com/invoker-iam-disabled: annotation:

     apiVersion 
     : 
      
     serving.knative.dev/v1 
     kind

     'true' 
      
     name 
     : 
      
      SERVICE_NAME 
     
    

    Replace SERVICE_NAME with the name of your Cloud Run service.

  3. Replace the service with its new configuration using the following command:

    gcloud  
    run  
    services  
    replace  
    service.yaml

Terraform

To learn how to apply or remove a Terraform configuration, see Basic Terraform commands .

 " IMAGE_URL 
" 
  
 } 
  
 } 
 } 
 

Replace the following:

  • SERVICE : the name of your Cloud Run service.
  • REGION : the Google Cloud region—for example, europe-west1 .
  • IMAGE_URL : a reference to the container image, for example, us-docker.pkg.dev/cloudrun/container/hello:latest . If you use Artifact Registry, the repository REPO_NAME must already be created. The URL follows the format of LOCATION -docker.pkg.dev/ PROJECT_ID / REPO_NAME / PATH : TAG

Verify that the check is disabled after deployment by navigating to the service's HTTPS endpoint.

Re-enable the Cloud Run Invoker IAM check

To re-enable the check:

Console

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Cloud Run Servicespage:

    Go to Cloud Run

  2. Click the service, then click Security.

  3. Select Require authenticationand select Identity and Access Management (IAM).

  4. Click Save.

gcloud

  • Update the service by passing the --invoker-iam-check flag:

    gcloud  
    run  
    services  
    update  
     SERVICE_NAME 
      
    --invoker-iam-check

    Replace SERVICE_NAME with the service name.

YAML

  1. To view and download the configuration:

    gcloud  
    run  
    services  
    describe  
     SERVICE 
      
    --format  
     export 
      
    >  
    service.yaml
  2. Update the run.googleapis.com/invoker-iam-disabled: annotation:

     apiVersion 
     : 
      
     serving.knative.dev/v1

     : 
      
     'false' 
      
     name 
     : 
      
      SERVICE_NAME 
     
    

    Replace SERVICE_NAME with the name of your Cloud Run service.

Terraform

To learn how to apply or remove a Terraform configuration, see Basic Terraform commands .

Add the following to a google_cloud_run_v2_service resource in your Terraform configuration:
  resource 
  
 "google_cloud_run_v2_service" 
  
 "default" 
  
 { 
  
 name 
  
 = 
  
 " SERVICE 
" 
  
 location 
  
 = 
  
 " REGION 
" 
  
 invoker_iam_disabled 
  
 = 
  
 false 
  
 template 
  
 { 
  
 containers 
  
 { 
  
 image 
  
 = 
  
 " IMAGE_URL 
" 
  
 } 
  
 } 
 } 
 

Replace the following:

  • SERVICE : the name of your Cloud Run service.
  • REGION : the Google Cloud region—for example, europe-west1 .
  • IMAGE_URL : a reference to the container image, for example, us-docker.pkg.dev/cloudrun/container/hello:latest . If you use Artifact Registry, the repository REPO_NAME must already be created. The URL follows the format of LOCATION -docker.pkg.dev/ PROJECT_ID / REPO_NAME / PATH : TAG

Verify that the check is re-enabled after deployment by navigating to the service's HTTPS endpoint.

Configure organization policy for the Cloud Run invoker IAM check

If you're an administrator, you can restrict the ability to disable the Invoker IAM check by using the constraints/run.managed.requireInvokerIam managed constraint. This constraint is not enforced by default.

Assign the Cloud Run IAM Invoker role to the allUsers member type

You can allow public access to a service by assigning the Cloud Run Invoker IAM role to the allUsers member type.

You must have the run.services.setIamPolicy permission to configure authentication on a Cloud Run service. This permission is included in the Cloud Run Admin role. See Cloud Run IAM roles for the full list of roles and their associated permissions.

Console

For an existing Cloud Run service:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Cloud Run Servicespage:

    Go to Google Cloud console

  2. To the left of the service that you want to make public, click the checkbox. Don't click the service itself.

  3. In the information pane in the top-right corner, click the Permissionstab. If the information pane isn't visible, you might need to click Show Info Panel, then click Permissions.

  4. Click Add principal.

In the New principalsfield, enter the value allUsers .

  1. From the Select a rolemenu, select the Cloud Run Invokerrole.

  2. Click Save.

  3. You will be prompted to verify that you would like to make this resource public. Click Allow public accessto apply the change to the service IAM settings.

For a new service you are creating, create the service and select Allow public accessin the Authenticationsection to make the service publicly available. To make a service private, select Require authentication.

gcloud

To make a service publicly accessible, use the gcloud run services command to add the special allUsers member type to a service and grant it the roles/run.invoker role:

  
gcloud  
run  
services  
add-iam-policy-binding  
  [ 
SERVICE_NAME ] 
 
  
 \ 
  
--member = 
  "allUsers" 
 
  
 \ 
  
--role = 
  "roles/run.invoker" 
 

Run the gcloud run deploy command to make your service publicly accessible when you deploy your service:

gcloud  
run  
deploy  
  [ 
SERVICE_NAME ] 
 
  
...  
 --allow-unauthenticated 

YAML

Create a file named policy.yaml with the following content:

 bindings:
- members:
  - allUsers
  role: roles/run.invoker 

Allow public access for the existing SERVICE using:

gcloud  
run  
services  
set-iam-policy  
 SERVICE 
  
policy.yaml

Terraform

To learn how to apply or remove a Terraform configuration, see Basic Terraform commands .

Add the following to a google_cloud_run_v2_service resource in your Terraform configuration:
  resource 
  
 "google_cloud_run_v2_service" 
  
 "default" 
  
 { 
  
 name 
  
 = 
  
 "public-service" 
  
 location 
  
 = 
  
 "us-central1" 
  
 deletion_protection 
  
 = 
  
 false 
 # set to "true" in production 
  
 template 
  
 { 
  
 containers 
  
 { 
  
 image 
  
 = 
  
 "us-docker.pkg.dev/cloudrun/container/hello" 
  
 } 
  
 } 
 } 
 

To update the service IAM binding for roles/run.invoker , add the following resource referencing your Cloud Run service:

  resource 
  
 "google_cloud_run_service_iam_binding" 
  
 "default" 
  
 { 
  
 location 
  
 = 
  
 google_cloud_run_v2_service.default.location 
  
 service 
  
 = 
  
 google_cloud_run_v2_service.default.name 
  
 role 
  
 = 
  
 "roles/run.invoker" 
  
 members 
  
 = 
  
 [ 
  
 "allUsers" 
  
 ] 
 } 
 

This binding is only authoritative for the given role. Other IAM bindings within the service IAM policy are preserved.

Use IAM Conditions

You can use IAM Conditions to define and enforce conditional, attribute-based access control for certain Cloud Run resources. Cloud Run supports the ( request.host ) and ( request.path ) condition attributes to grant conditional access when invoking Cloud Run services and worker pools.

For example, to grant conditional access with the request.host and request.path attributes when invoking Cloud Run services, add the condition field when running the following command:

gcloud run services add-iam-policy-binding SERVICE_NAME 
\
    --member= PRINCIPAL 
\
    --role= ROLE 
\
    --region= REGION 
\
    --condition=[ KEY 
= VALUE 
,...]

Replace the following:

  • SERVICE_NAME : the service name (for example, my-service ).
  • PRINCIPAL : the principal (for example, user:email@domain.com ).
  • ROLE : the role (for example, roles/run.invoker ).
  • REGION : the region (for example, europe-west1 ).
  • KEY = VALUE : a condition to include in the binding. The --condition flag must include the key-value pairs expression and title .
