GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question

A fintech company must allow a group of external contractors to run read-only queries against tables in the prod_finance BigQuery dataset for a two-week audit. Queries are permitted only when the request originates from the company's on-premises public subnet 198.51.100.0/24, and access must automatically expire at 23:59 UTC on 15 June 2025. The solution should follow the principle of least privilege and avoid granting broader project-level permissions. How should you configure access?

  • Grant a custom IAM role containing only bigquery.jobs.create on the prod_finance dataset with an IAM condition that evaluates request.ip and request.time.

  • Grant the contractors the BigQuery User role on the entire project and rely on VPC Service Controls to restrict access to 198.51.100.0/24.

  • Expose BigQuery through Identity-Aware Proxy (IAP), configure an access level for the 198.51.100.0/24 subnet, and grant the contractors BigQuery User on the project for the duration of the audit.

  • Grant the contractors the BigQuery Data Viewer role on the prod_finance dataset with an IAM condition that allows access only until timestamp("2025-06-15T23:59:59Z"). Create a VPC Service Controls perimeter for the project and add an ingress rule permitting access exclusively from 198.51.100.0/24.
