Google Associate Cloud Engineer: Service Accounts & IAM

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. A service account, identified by its unique email address, is typically used by an application or compute workload rather than a person. Knowledge of service accounts is necessary for the Google Associate Cloud Engineer exam and, in this course, you’ll explore service accounts and Identity and Access Management (IAM) in Google Cloud. First, you’ll learn how to create service accounts, how to create and grant roles to service agents, and how to manage service accounts. Then, you’ll discover how to assign service accounts to VMs, how to grant access to project service accounts, and service account best practices. Finally, you’ll dig into managing conditional access, managing service account impersonation, and working with short-lived credentials. This course is one of a collection that prepares learners for the Google Associate Cloud Engineer exam.
