Access control with IAM

By default, only project owners and editors can create, update, delete, or invoke services and jobs, 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 and jobs, 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 and jobs, 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 and job executions.
Can get IAM policies.
Can view recommendations .
Cloud Run Invoker ( roles/run.invoker ) Can invoke services and jobs, can cancel job executions.

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

where PRINCIPAL is the principal (e.g. user:email@domain.com ), and ROLE is the role (e.g. roles/run.admin ).

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 
     : 
      
     Service 
     metadata 
     : 
      
     annotations 
     : 
      
     run.googleapis.com/invoker-iam-disabled 
     : 
      
     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

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 page:

    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 
      
     kind 
     : 
      
     Service 
      
     metadata 
     : 
      
     annotations 
     : 
      
     run.googleapis.com/invoker-iam-disabled 
     : 
      
     false 
      
     name 
     : 
      
      SERVICE_NAME 
     
    

    Replace SERVICE_NAME with the name of your Cloud Run service.

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 page:

    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 on a service

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

  • 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:

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