in gcloud console iam how can I add roles to groups?

Question

I want to know how to add roles to groups. How is that done in the gcloud iam console? (https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin)

Answer 1

There is no special action to take if you want to grant the roles through the cloud console, as indicated by the help text on the input field:

Simply write the group email, and select the roles you want to grant.

Note that the group must be a Google group or a G Suite group to work (Google needs to know who is a member of the group to grant the right permissions to the accounts).

The detailed steps are on the IAM docs.
