How to generate credentials for your Google services
Prerequisites
To allow a user to manage service account keys, grant the Service Account Key Admin role (roles/iam.serviceAccountKeyAdmin). For more information, see Service Accounts roles.
IAM basic roles also contain permissions to manage service account keys. You should not grant basic roles in a production environment, but you can grant them in a development or test environment.
Steps
- In the Cloud Console, go to the Service Accounts page. → Go to Service accounts
- Select a project.
- Click the email address of the service account that you want to create a key for.
- Click the Keys tab.
- Click the Add key drop-down menu, then select Create new key.
- Select JSON as the Key type and click Create.
Clicking Create downloads a service account key file. After you download the key file, you cannot download it again.
