# GCP

> Connect your Google Cloud Platform account

## Overview

Connect your GCP account to give TierZero access to your Google Cloud infrastructure. TierZero uses GCP integrations for cloud resource context and monitoring data.

## Prerequisites

* Administrative access to your GCP project
* Permission to create service accounts

## Setup Instructions

### Step 1: Navigate to Integration Settings

1. Log into your TierZero dashboard
2. Go to **Settings → Integrations**
3. Click **Connect** next to GCP

### Step 2: Create a Service Account

1. In the GCP Console, go to **IAM & Admin → Service Accounts**
2. Click **Create Service Account**
3. Name it (e.g., "tierzero-integration")
4. Grant the required read-only roles
5. Create a JSON key for the service account

### Step 3: Enter Credentials

1. Upload or paste the service account JSON key in TierZero
2. Click **Connect**

## What TierZero Accesses

* **Cloud resource metadata**: Project and resource configurations
* **Monitoring data**: See [GCP Cloud Monitoring](/integrations/gcp-cloud-monitoring) for detailed metrics and logs access

## Security

* TierZero uses service account impersonation with minimal permissions
* Credentials are encrypted at rest
* Revoke access by deleting the service account or removing its key

## Troubleshooting

### Permission Errors

* Verify the service account has the required roles
* Check that the service account key has not been rotated or deleted
