Assigning roles for a function

CLI
API

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, install and initialize it.

The folder used by default is the one specified when creating the CLI profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also specify a different folder for any command using --folder-name or --folder-id. If you access a resource by its name, the search will be limited to the default folder. If you access a resource by its ID, the search will be global, i.e., through all folders based on access permissions.

Run this command to assign a role for a function:

  • To a user:
    yc serverless function add-access-binding \
      --id <function_ID> \
      --user-account-id <user_ID> \
      --role <role>
    
    Result:
    done (1s)
    
  • To a service account:
    yc serverless function add-access-binding \
      --id <function_ID> \
      --service-account-id <service_account_ID> \
      --role <role>
    
    Result:
    done (1s)
    
  • To all authenticated users (the All authenticated users public group):
    yc serverless function add-access-binding \
      --id <function_ID> \
      --all-authenticated-users \
      --role <role>
    
    Result:
    done (1s)
    

To assign roles for a function, use the setAccessBindings REST API method for the Function resource or the FunctionService/SetAccessBindings gRPC API call.
