Overview

Package externalaccount provides support for creating workload identity federation and workforce identity federation token providers that can be used to access Google Cloud resources from external identity providers.

Workload Identity Federation

Using workload identity federation, your application can access Google Cloud resources from Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure or any identity provider that supports OpenID Connect (OIDC) or SAML 2.0. Traditionally, applications running outside Google Cloud have used service account keys to access Google Cloud resources. Using identity federation, you can allow your workload to impersonate a service account. This lets you access Google Cloud resources directly, eliminating the maintenance and security burden associated with service account keys.

Follow the detailed instructions on how to configure Workload Identity Federation in various platforms:

- Amazon Web Services (AWS): https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/workload-identity-federation-with-other-clouds#aws - Microsoft Azure: https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/workload-identity-federation-with-other-clouds#azure - OIDC identity provider: https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/workload-identity-federation-with-other-providers#oidc - SAML 2.0 identity provider: https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/workload-identity-federation-with-other-providers#saml

For OIDC and SAML providers, the library can retrieve tokens in fours ways: from a local file location (file-sourced credentials), from a server (URL-sourced credentials), from a local executable (executable-sourced credentials), or from a user defined function that returns an OIDC or SAML token. For file-sourced credentials, a background process needs to be continuously refreshing the file location with a new OIDC/SAML token prior to expiration. For tokens with one hour lifetimes, the token needs to be updated in the file every hour. The token can be stored directly as plain text or in JSON format. For URL-sourced credentials, a local server needs to host a GET endpoint to return the OIDC/SAML token. The response can be in plain text or JSON. Additional required request headers can also be specified. For executable-sourced credentials, an application needs to be available to output the OIDC/SAML token and other information in a JSON format. For more information on how these work (and how to implement executable-sourced credentials), please check out: https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/workload-identity-federation-with-other-providers#create_a_credential_configuration

To use a custom function to supply the token, define a struct that implements the SubjectTokenProvider interface for OIDC/SAML providers, or one that implements AwsSecurityCredentialsProvider for AWS providers. This can then be used when building a Options.The cloud.google.com/go/auth.Credentials created from the options using NewCredentials can then be used to access Google Cloud resources. For instance, you can create a new client from the cloud.google.com/go/storage package and pass in option.WithTokenProvider(yourTokenProvider))

Workforce Identity Federation

Workforce identity federation lets you use an external identity provider (IdP) to authenticate and authorize a workforce—a group of users, such as employees, partners, and contractors—using IAM, so that the users can access Google Cloud services. Workforce identity federation extends Google Cloud's identity capabilities to support syncless, attribute-based single sign on.

With workforce identity federation, your workforce can access Google Cloud resources using an external identity provider (IdP) that supports OpenID Connect (OIDC) or SAML 2.0 such as Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), Okta, and others.

Follow the detailed instructions on how to configure Workload Identity Federation in various platforms:

For workforce identity federation, the library can retrieve tokens in three ways: from a local file location (file-sourced credentials), from a server (URL-sourced credentials), or from a local executable (executable-sourced credentials). For file-sourced credentials, a background process needs to be continuously refreshing the file location with a new OIDC/SAML token prior to expiration. For tokens with one hour lifetimes, the token needs to be updated in the file every hour. The token can be stored directly as plain text or in JSON format. For URL-sourced credentials, a local server needs to host a GET endpoint to return the OIDC/SAML token. The response can be in plain text or JSON. Additional required request headers can also be specified. For executable-sourced credentials, an application needs to be available to output the OIDC/SAML token and other information in a JSON format.

Security considerations

Note that this library does not perform any validation on the token_url, token_info_url, or service_account_impersonation_url fields of the credential configuration. It is not recommended to use a credential configuration that you did not generate with the gcloud CLI unless you verify that the URL fields point to a googleapis.com domain.

Functions

func NewCredentials 

func NewCredentials(opts *Options) (*auth.Credentials, error)

NewCredentials returns a cloud.google.com/go/auth.Credentials configured with the provided options.

type AwsSecurityCredentials struct {
	// AccessKeyId is the AWS Access Key ID - Required.
	AccessKeyID string `json:"AccessKeyID"`
	// SecretAccessKey is the AWS Secret Access Key - Required.
	SecretAccessKey string `json:"SecretAccessKey"`
	// SessionToken is the AWS Session token. This should be provided for
	// temporary AWS security credentials - Optional.

AwsSecurityCredentials models AWS security credentials.

type AwsSecurityCredentialsProvider

}

AwsSecurityCredentialsProvider can be used to supply AwsSecurityCredentials and an AWS Region to exchange for a GCP access token.
