Constraint

A constraint describes a way to restrict resource's configuration. For example, you could enforce a constraint that controls which Google Cloud services can be activated across an organization, or whether a Compute Engine instance can have serial port connections established. Constraints can be configured by the organization policy administrator to fit the needs of the organization by setting a policy that includes constraints at different locations in the organization's resource hierarchy. Policies are inherited down the resource hierarchy from higher levels, but can also be overridden. For details about the inheritance rules please read about [policies][google.cloud.OrgPolicy.v2.Policy].

Constraints have a default behavior determined by the constraintDefault field, which is the enforcement behavior that is used in the absence of a policy being defined or inherited for the resource in question.

Fields
name

string

Immutable. The resource name of the constraint. Must be in one of the following forms:

  • projects/{project_number}/constraints/{constraint_name}
  • folders/{folder_id}/constraints/{constraint_name}
  • organizations/{organization_id}/constraints/{constraint_name}

For example, "/projects/123/constraints/compute.disableSerialPortAccess".

displayName

string

The human readable name.

Mutable.

description

string

Detailed description of what this constraint controls as well as how and where it is enforced.

Mutable.

constraintDefault

enum (ConstraintDefault)

The evaluation behavior of this constraint in the absence of a policy.

supportsDryRun

boolean

Shows if dry run is supported for this constraint or not.

Union field constraint_type. The type of restrictions for this Constraint.

Immutable after creation. constraint_type can be only one of the following:

listConstraint

object (ListConstraint)

Defines this constraint as being a ListConstraint.

booleanConstraint

object (BooleanConstraint)

Defines this constraint as being a BooleanConstraint.

ConstraintDefault

Specifies the default behavior in the absence of any policy for the constraint. This must not be CONSTRAINT_DEFAULT_UNSPECIFIED.

Immutable after creation.

Enums
CONSTRAINT_DEFAULT_UNSPECIFIED This is only used for distinguishing unset values and should never be used.
ALLOW Indicate that all values are allowed for list constraints. Indicate that enforcement is off for boolean constraints.
DENY Indicate that all values are denied for list constraints. Indicate that enforcement is on for boolean constraints.

ListConstraint

A constraint that allows or disallows a list of string values, which are configured by an Organization Policy administrator with a policy.

JSON representation
{
  "supportsIn": boolean,
  "supportsUnder": boolean
}
Fields
supportsIn

boolean

Indicates whether values grouped into categories can be used in Policy.allowed_values and Policy.denied_values. For example, "in:Python" would match any value in the 'Python' group.

supportsUnder

boolean

Indicates whether subtrees of the Resource Manager resource hierarchy can be used in Policy.allowed_values and Policy.denied_values. For example, "under:folders/123" would match any resource under the 'folders/123' folder.

BooleanConstraint

This type has no fields.

A constraint that is either enforced or not.

For example, a constraint constraints/compute.disableSerialPortAccess. If it is enforced on a VM instance, serial port connections will not be opened to that instance.
