Section titled “Responses”Updated instance profile.
Binds an instance to a service account + Cedar trust policy +
credential TTL. Apps inside a VM with the
profile attached call IMDS; the trust policy decides whether the
calling instance may assume the bound service account, and on a
pass the IMDS path mints short-lived credentials. A profile
enters orphaned when its backing service account is deleted.
object
Machine identifier returned by the IMDS endpoint at
/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/<name>. Unique
per project; immutable after create.
Cedar trust policy — controls which instances may assume this profile.
TTL of each minted credential. Default 3600, min 900, max 43200.

The findings of a rejected IAM policy document (custom and resource policies).
One finding of a rejected IAM policy document. A rejection lists every finding, so the author fixes the document in one round trip.

The finding, e.g. INVALID_DOCUMENT, UNKNOWN_ACTION, ACTION_NOT_APPLICABLE.
Index of the statement at fault; -1 for the document as a whole.
The offending action, where one is at fault (ACTION_NOT_APPLICABLE).
Field errors, for codes that carry them: each problem at its field
(see FieldError). Documented on the responses that set it, e.g.
approveNodeJoin’s INVALID_INPUT and JOIN_APPROVAL_REFUSED.
Absent otherwise.
One field’s problem, the stage-2 installer API’s shape.

The field’s path, e.g. links[0].interface, disks[1].confirm,
mgmt.address or role; empty for the whole request.
Structured facts about the refusal, for codes that carry them. The

it, e.g. IMAGE_POOL_MISMATCH (see ImagePoolMismatchDetails) and
IMAGE_IN_USE. Absent for codes that carry none.
