Apotheosis is a tool you can run in the command line to grant yourself temporary Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Identity and Access Management (IAM) privileges which will expire after a specified amount of time. It is meant to allow high privilege users, who would otherwise have Owner or Org Admin roles, not to have any roles themselves except for Service Account User and Service Account Token Creator on a service account which will have the Owner role which would otherwise be assigned to these users.
To run the application:
git clone git@github.com:etsy/Apotheosis.git
cd apotheosis
virtualenv -p python2 venv
source venv/bin/activate
sudo python setup.py install
apotheosis -hUsage Examples:
Adding to an organization:
apotheosis -d 30 -res 305014881247 -r roles/appengine.deployer
Added roles/appengine.deployer to user:amellos@etsy.com for 30 seconds
Removed roles/appengine.deployer from user:amellos@etsy.comAdding to a project:
apotheosis -d 60 -res apotheosis-test -r roles/viewer -m group:example@etsy.com
Added roles/viewer to group:example@etsy.com for 60 seconds
Removed roles/viewer from group:example@etsy.comIt makes sense to configure defaults for the command line arguments. These can be hardcoded in the file apotheosis.py, like:
default_resource = "a-project-id"
default_role = "roles/viewer"
default_member = "user:someone@something.com"
default_service_account = "my_service_account@a-project-id.iam.gserviceaccount.com"
If you are signed in to gcloud your default credentials should be set. In some cases it may be necessary to run gcloud auth application-default login and authenticate with the account which has permissions on the service account.
Also you can press enter in the terminal to revoke the permissions early.
