SAFIRE

A flexible tool to create and delete Google / GSuite service accounts to be used with shared drives.

Create projects, SAs, jsons/keys for SAs, group members and shared drives.

A side feature: safire list all will create both csv and xlsx files listing name/unique id/etc. for all projects, service accounts, shared drives, groups and group members for your account. Handy for use with other apps and scripts.

• Simple usage syntax: e.g. safire list projects

• Available main commands:

  • list
  • add / create
  • remove / delete
  • auth
  • enable
  • rename

• Most commands will tell you which subcommands are available by simply typing the main command with no flags. e.g. safire list or optionally safire list -h . Subcommands include:

  • projects
  • sas - aka service accounts
  • keys / jsons
  • groups
  • members

Before running safire you will need one project (new or old is fine) with several apis enabled.

• If no project exists go to https://console.cloud.google.com/projectcreate to create one in your main account

• Then go to https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library. Ensure you choose your main project (dropdown at the top of the page), then enable the following APIs:

  [ You only need to do this once. ]

  • Admin
  • Drive
  • Identity and Access Management (IAM)
  • Cloud Resource Manager
  • Service Usage
  • Service Management

Once you have enabled the above APIs then go to this page

• https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials
• Click Create Credentials
• Choose OAuth client ID
• For Application type choose Desktop app and name it as you like ( 'safire' or anything)
• Click Create
• Finally choose Download JSON
• You will use this JSON to create a token which allows you access to your account and gives you permission to create projects, service accounts, etc. Keep one copy of this JSON in a safe place, then put a copy named creds.json in the safire/creds folder [specified in your config.py file - you can change the location if you like]

Once you have this initial project created, all the APIs above enabled and have created/downloaded the credentials creds.json you are ready to use safire.

The command line is very flexible. You can quickly and easily

• create projects
• create and delete service accounts(SAs) and json keys (that let you access shared drives and copy/sync/move files),
• add the SA emails to groups and shared drives to use with tools like sasync, cloudplow/cloudbox, crop etc.

Don't be afraid to play with the commands. You can fix almost anything by deleting and recreating components in a few minutes. [The exception being projects, which you should not delete as they go into a 30-day holding bin before being fully deleted, and count against your project quota.]

A typical, simple flow of commands

• download a credentials json
• create auth token to enable safire to access your account: ./safire auth all will create two tokens, one to access projects/drives/etc and one to access groups
• add projects: ./safire add projects 5 will add 5 projects using the prefix in your config.py file
• enable apis: happens automatically when you add projects, but can be done manually
• create sas: ./safire add sas "" will add sas to all or your projects using # of SAs in config.py
• download json keys: ./safire add jsons "" will create and download service account json keys to the folder in config.py
• add members to group: ./safire add members "" mygroup@domain.com will add all SA emails from all projects to a group called mygroup@domain.com
• add group to shared (team) drive
