Zorluk: OrtaConfiguring Service Account Impersonation and Workload Identity

An automated analytics pipeline deployed on Cloud Run operates using the runtime service account [email protected]. To complete batch jobs, it must mint short-lived OAuth 2.0 access tokens to impersonate [email protected] without using static credentials. Following the principle of least privilege, which configuration enables this impersonation capability?

  1. Assign the predefined IAM role roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator on the target bq-exporter service account to principal [email protected].Cevap
  2. B
    Assign the predefined IAM role roles/iam.serviceAccountUser on the target bq-exporter service account to principal [email protected].
  3. C
    Create a long-lived service account key file in JSON format for bq-exporter and store it in Secret Manager for Cloud Run to access.
  4. D
    Bind the Project Editor primitive role to [email protected] across the target project resource hierarchy.

Cevap

Assign the predefined IAM role roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator on the target bq-exporter service account to principal [email protected].
To impersonate a target service account and generate short-lived tokens keylessly, the principal making the call must be granted the roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator role directly on that target service account.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the source principal and target resource
The source principal is [email protected] and the target resource being impersonated is [email protected].
Impersonation requires configuring IAM policy bindings directly on the target service account.
2
Determine the required permission capability
The requirement specifies generating short-lived access tokens without long-lived keys.
Minting short-lived tokens requires the iam.serviceAccounts.getAccessToken permission contained in the Service Account Token Creator role.
3
Select the minimum necessary IAM role binding
Assigning roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator on the target service account grants the exact permission needed for impersonation without granting overprivileged project access.
This satisfies GCP security best practices and the principle of least privilege.
