NAME
    gcloud alpha compute machine-images set-iam-policy - set the IAM policy for
        a Compute Engine machine image

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud alpha compute machine-images set-iam-policy MACHINE_IMAGE
        POLICY_FILE [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) Sets the IAM policy for the given machine image as defined in a
    JSON or YAML file.

EXAMPLES
    The following command reads an IAM policy defined in a policy.json file        and sets the policy for the machine image `my-image`:

        $ gcloud alpha compute machine-images set-iam-policy my-image \
            policy.json

    See https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/managing-policies for details of the
    policy file format and contents.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     Machine image resource - The machine image to set the IAM policy for. This
     represents a Cloud resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given
     arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

     To set the project attribute:
      ◆ provide the argument machine_image on the command line with a fully
        specified name;
      ◆ provide the argument --project on the command line;
      ◆ set the property core/project.

     This must be specified.

       MACHINE_IMAGE
          ID of the machine image or fully qualified identifier for the machine
          image.

          To set the machine_image attribute:
          ▸ provide the argument machine_image on the command line.

     POLICY_FILE
        Path to a local JSON or YAML formatted file containing a valid policy.

        The output of the get-iam-policy command is a valid file, as is any
        JSON or YAML file conforming to the structure of a Policy
        (https://cloud.google.com/iam/reference/rest/v1/Policy).

API REFERENCE
    This command uses the compute/alpha API. The full documentation for this
    API can be found at: https://cloud.google.com/compute/

NOTES
    This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this
    command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct
    project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early
    access allowlist. These variants are also available:

        $ gcloud compute machine-images set-iam-policy

        $ gcloud beta compute machine-images set-iam-policy
