I'm updating our github actions to use WIF, I've spent ages trying to figure out why it wasn't working, the only error was
Error: google-github-actions/setup-gcloud failed with: The process '/opt/hostedtoolcache/gcloud/315.0.0/x64/bin/gcloud' failed with exit code 2
I looked at the raw logs, no additional details. The error wasn't on the google-github-actions/auth step, was on the google-github-actions/setup-gcloud step.
Turns out older versions of gcloud don't use WIF tokens. This is what I had and what worked.
...
- id: 'auth'
uses: 'google-github-actions/[email protected]'
with:
workload_identity_provider: 'projects/{project_id}/locations/global/workloadIdentityPools/{pool_id}/providers/{provider_id}'
service_account: '{service_account_name}@{project_name}.iam.gserviceaccount.com'
- name: 'Setup gcloud SDK'
uses: google-github-actions/[email protected]
with:
version: "315.0.0" # doesn't work with WIF (assume this version of gcloud doesn't know where/how to look for a WIF token)
version: "367.0.0" # works
...
Please add something to the README.md to help others in this situation, perhaps under https://github.com/google-github-actions/setup-gcloud#usage, eg
...
- name: 'Set up Cloud SDK'
uses: 'google-github-actions/[email protected]'
+ with: # optional
+ version: "???.0.0" # min version of gcloud that works with WIF
...
WIF would work
Error: google-github-actions/setup-gcloud failed with: The process '/opt/hostedtoolcache/gcloud/315.0.0/x64/bin/gcloud' failed with exit code 2
See aboveI assumed that the WIF token was in a place and format that gcloud would find and simply pass to gcp.
