Hello vv,
We are reaching out to share an update regarding scheduled modifications to our Identity and Access Management predefined roles. These modifications introduce new access permissions to predefined IAM roles including Admin, Editor, and Viewer.
Please refer to the communication dated January 29, 2026 titled ‘[Action Advised] Review IAM new permissions for multiple Google Cloud services’ to learn more about these modifications.
Based on customer feedback, we are extending the roll out date to ensure that your organization has sufficient time to audit these updates. The changes originally slated for March 29, 2026 have been deferred until September 30, 2026.

What this means for your environment
We highly encourage you to review the changes outlined in the previous communication that will now roll out on September 30, 2026 and engage with us on any questions on concerns during this period.
What you need to do
To prepare for the upcoming change on September 30, 2026, here are the recommended actions for you to consider prior to this rollout:
- Review the new permissions granted to your principals based on updated role changes. Review your policies where the changed roles are applied, and verify that the additional permissions are acceptable for granting to the users, groups, or service accounts defined in the policy bindings. If your organization finds the changes acceptable, no action is required on your part.
- Depending on your security needs, you can choose to not grant these permissions to your users by creating a custom role with the specific permissions you wish to grant, or by using an IAM Deny policy to deny specific permissions.
We apologize for any shift in your project planning this update may have caused. Our goal is to simplify your permissions management without creating unnecessary friction in your workflow.
We’re here to help
If you’d like to dive deeper into the specifics of these role changes or have questions about the new timeline, please reach out to Google Cloud Support. You can also find the most up-to-date definitions on our IAM Documentation page.
Thank you for your patience and for being a part of the Google Cloud community.
