(BETA) Create a new Access Context Manager policy. An Access
Context Manager policy, also known as an access policy, is a container for
access levels and VPC Service Controls service perimeters.
You can optionally specify either a folder or a project as a scope of an access policy. A scoped policy only allows projects under that scope to be restricted by any service perimeters defined with that policy. The scope must be within the organization that this policy is associated with. You can specify only one folder or project as the scope for an access policy. If you don't specify a scope, then the scope extends to the entire organization and any projects within the organization can be added to service perimeters in this policy.
This command only creates an access policy. Access levels and service perimeters need to be created explicitly.gcloud beta access-context-manager policies create --organization=organizations/123 --title="My Policy"To create an access policy that applies to the folder with the ID 345, run:
