You need to confirm-without making any changes-whether the service account [email protected] has the Owner role on the project alpha-prod. You only have a web browser and must use the Google Cloud Console. Which approach lets you verify this in the shortest time?
Go to Compute Engine > VM instances, choose any VM that uses the service account, click Edit, and inspect the Service account drop-down for role information.
Launch IAM & Admin > Policy Analyzer, create a query for the project with the service account as the principal, and review the analysis results for Owner bindings.
Open IAM & Admin > Roles, search for the Owner role, and expand it to view the principals currently granted that role.
Navigate to IAM & Admin > IAM, paste the service account email into the filter box, and review the roles listed beside the account.
In the Cloud Console, the IAM page lists every principal-to-role binding that applies at the project level. Using the filter box on that page immediately narrows the table to the specified principal, allowing you to see any roles (including Owner) it holds. The Roles page only describes role definitions and never shows who has the role, so it will not reveal assignments. Inspecting a VM instance only shows which service account the VM runs as, not what IAM roles that service account has. IAM Policy Analyzer requires setting up a query that traverses the resource hierarchy; while it can eventually show the binding, it involves more steps than simply filtering the IAM page.
