gRPC request

rpc Update (UpdateFederationRequest) returns (operation.Operation)

UpdateFederationRequest

{
  "federationId": "string",
  "updateMask": "google.protobuf.FieldMask",
  "name": "string",
  "description": "string",
  "cookieMaxAge": "google.protobuf.Duration",
  "autoCreateAccountOnLogin": "bool",
  "issuer": "string",
  "ssoBinding": "BindingType",
  "ssoUrl": "string",
  "securitySettings": {
    "encryptedAssertions": "bool"
  },
  "caseInsensitiveNameIds": "bool"
}

Field

Description

federationId

string

ID of the federation to update.
To get the federation ID, make a FederationService.List request.

updateMask

google.protobuf.FieldMask

Field mask that specifies which fields of the federation are going to be updated.

name

string

Name of the federation.
The name must be unique within the cloud.

description

string

Description of the federation.

cookieMaxAge

google.protobuf.Duration

Browser cookie lifetime in seconds.
If the cookie is still valid, the management console
authenticates the user immediately and redirects them to the home page.
The default value is 8h.

autoCreateAccountOnLogin

bool

Add new users automatically on successful authentication.
The user will get the resource-manager.clouds.member role automatically,
but you need to grant other roles to them.

If the value is false, users who aren't added to the cloud
can't log in, even if they have authenticated on your server.

issuer

string

Required field. ID of the IdP server to be used for authentication.
The IdP server also responds to IAM with this ID after the user authenticates.

ssoBinding

enum BindingType

Single sign-on endpoint binding type. Most Identity Providers support the POST binding type.

SAML Binding is a mapping of a SAML protocol message onto standard messaging
formats and/or communications protocols.

  • BINDING_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED
  • POST: HTTP POST binding.
  • REDIRECT: HTTP redirect binding.
  • ARTIFACT: HTTP artifact binding.

ssoUrl

string

Required field. Single sign-on endpoint URL.
Specify the link to the IdP login page here.

securitySettings

FederationSecuritySettings

Federation security settings.

caseInsensitiveNameIds

bool

Use case insensitive name ids.

FederationSecuritySettings

Federation security settings.

Field

Description

encryptedAssertions

bool

Enable encrypted assertions.

  }
  // end of the list of possible fields
}

An Operation resource. For more information, see Operation.

Field

Description

id

string

ID of the operation.

description

string

Description of the operation. 0-256 characters long.

createdAt

google.protobuf.Timestamp

Creation timestamp.

createdBy

string

ID of the user or service account who initiated the operation.

modifiedAt

google.protobuf.Timestamp

The time when the Operation resource was last modified.

done

bool

If the value is false, it means the operation is still in progress.
If true, the operation is completed, and either error or response is available.

metadata

UpdateFederationMetadata

Service-specific metadata associated with the operation.
It typically contains the ID of the target resource that the operation is performed on.
Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the metadata type, if any.

error

google.rpc.Status

The error result of the operation in case of failure or cancellation.

Includes only one of the fields error, response.

The operation result.
If done == false and there was no failure detected, neither error nor response is set.
If done == false and there was a failure detected, error is set.
If done == true, exactly one of error or response is set.

response

Federation

The normal response of the operation in case of success.
If the original method returns no data on success, such as Delete,
the response is google.protobuf.Empty.
If the original method is the standard Create/Update,
the response should be the target resource of the operation.
Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the response type, if any.

Includes only one of the fields error, response.

The operation result.
If done == false and there was no failure detected, neither error nor response is set.
If done == false and there was a failure detected, error is set.
