Add external user to a project

[Christophe Delarue]

Hi,

I created a billing account using my id. I then created a project in that account.

If I want, my daughter, to use this project, I created a Service Account.

How can I link this service account to my daughter without giving her my credentials :) ?

Must my daughter have a google account to access the google cloud plateform project I want to share with her ??

If this account is for a business organization, a best practice is to use a "Cloud Identity" ?

Merci

Service accounts are generally used with the GCE Project by the services or the applications so that they can uninterruptedly communicate with GCP APIs.  

If you want to add a member (in your case: daughter), the very best option is to give the member a specific IAM role in your project. Depending on the needs you can always grant, change and revoke access roles to this member.  

The easiest way for your daughter to accept a member privilege is indeed the use of a Google Account. This article describes the use of Cloud IAM and the different member types.  

Could you please explain a little bit more regarding your last concern over business organization? 

Waiting for your reply
