Roles in IAM
A role contains a set of permissions that allows you to perform specific actions on Google Cloud resources. In simple words, a role is a named list of permissions.
How to Use Cloud Identity and Access Management (IAM) For Access Control on GCP?
IAM defines “who can do what on which resource”. Cloud IAM (Identity Access Management) offers a standardized set of functions and integrates access management for Google Cloud services into a single solution. You can create and manage permissions for Google Cloud resources using the Identity and Access Management (IAM) service provided by Google Cloud. The appropriate tools are provided by Cloud IAM to efficiently and highly automate the management of resource rights. Users do not receive permissions directly from you, you give them roles instead, that combine one or more permissions. You can use this to relate jobs and groups within your organization to specific job responsibilities. Users only have access to the information they require to do their tasks, and administrators can easily give default permissions to huge groups of users.
