在 GCP 上，如何授予对另一个项目中服务帐户的访问权限？

Question

I have a compute instance in project project-b , and a separate project project-a . The instance in project-b needs to access project-a using a project-a service account.

Answer 1

In project-a :

• Create the service account. Suppose its name is project-a-service-account@project-a.iam.gserviceaccount.com .
• Grant the service account very specific, limited roles
• Create and download a key for the service account. Name it key.json .

In project-b :

• Create a compute instance
• SSH to the instance. Type all the commands that follow into this compute instance SSH shell.
• Upload key file key.json to the instance. If you are using the Google Cloud Console SSH window, you can do this using Upload in the gear icon menu in the upper right.

• Activate the service account:

   gcloud auth activate-service-account project-a-service-account@project-a.iam.gserviceaccount.com --key-file key.json

• Reinitialize:

   gcloud init

  • The gcloud init command will offer to re-initialize the current configuration, or create a new one. It might be nice to create a new one, but it's up to you.
  • Choose account project-a-service-account@project-a.iam.gserviceaccount.com

Now, this instance in project-b can act as the service account in project-a . For example, if the service account has compute.instances.create permission, you can create an instance in project-a :

gcloud compute instances create new-instance --project project-a

Administrators of project-a can revoke this access by revoking the keys for service account project-a-service-account@project-a.iam.gserviceaccount.com .

Google has a super fast-talking demo showing this .
