# gcp_iam_service_account{% #gcp_iam_service_account %}

## `ancestors`{% #ancestors %}

**Type**: `UNORDERED_LIST_STRING` 

## `description`{% #description %}

**Type**: `STRING` **Provider name**: `description` **Description**: Optional. A user-specified, human-readable description of the service account. The maximum length is 256 UTF-8 bytes. 

## `disabled`{% #disabled %}

**Type**: `BOOLEAN` **Provider name**: `disabled` **Description**: Output only. Whether the service account is disabled. 

## `email`{% #email %}

**Type**: `STRING` **Provider name**: `email` **Description**: Output only. The email address of the service account. 

## `gcp_display_name`{% #gcp_display_name %}

**Type**: `STRING` **Provider name**: `displayName` **Description**: Optional. A user-specified, human-readable name for the service account. The maximum length is 100 UTF-8 bytes. 

## `labels`{% #labels %}

**Type**: `UNORDERED_LIST_STRING` 

## `name`{% #name %}

**Type**: `STRING` **Provider name**: `name` **Description**: The resource name of the service account. Use one of the following formats:

- `projects/{PROJECT_ID}/serviceAccounts/{EMAIL_ADDRESS}`
- `projects/{PROJECT_ID}/serviceAccounts/{UNIQUE_ID}`

As an alternative, you can use the `-` wildcard character instead of the project ID:

- `projects/-/serviceAccounts/{EMAIL_ADDRESS}`
- `projects/-/serviceAccounts/{UNIQUE_ID}`

When possible, avoid using the `-` wildcard character, because it can cause response messages to contain misleading error codes. For example, if you try to get the service account `projects/-/serviceAccounts/fake@example.com`, which does not exist, the response contains an HTTP `403 Forbidden` error instead of a `404 Not Found` error.

For example, if you delete a service account, then create a new service account with the same name, the new service account has a different unique ID than the deleted service account.
