Custom IAM roles permission update for Gemini Cloud Assist
On April 8, 2026, Gemini Cloud Assist is replacing the cloudaicompanion.instances.completeTask IAM permission with geminicloudassist.agents.invoke. Updates to standard IAM roles will be done automatically, but if you have access to Gemini Cloud Assist through a custom IAM role, you must update the role before April 8, 2026 to ensure continued access. For more information, see the deprecated IAM permissions page.
