The `~certbot_dns_google.dns_google` plugin automates the process of
completing a ``dns-01`` challenge (`~acme.challenges.DNS01`) by creating, and
subsequently removing, TXT records using the Google Cloud DNS API.
Named Arguments
---------------
======================================== =====================================
``--dns-google-credentials`` Google Cloud Platform credentials_
JSON file.
(Required)
``--dns-google-propagation-seconds`` The number of seconds to wait for DNS
to propagate before asking the ACME
server to verify the DNS record.
(Default: 60)
======================================== =====================================
Credentials
-----------
Use of this plugin requires a configuration file containing Google Cloud
Platform API credentials for an account with the following permissions:
* ``dns.changes.create``
* ``dns.changes.get``
* ``dns.managedZones.list``
* ``dns.resourceRecordSets.create``
* ``dns.resourceRecordSets.delete``
Google provides instructions for `creating a service account <https://developers
.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2ServiceAccount#creatinganaccount>`_ and
`information about the required permissions <https://cloud.google.com/dns/access
-control#permissions_and_roles>`_.
.. code-block:: json
:name: credentials.json
:caption: Example credentials file:
{
"type": "service_account",
...
}
The path to this file can be provided interactively or using the
``--dns-google-credentials`` command-line argument. Certbot records the path
to this file for use during renewal, but does not store the file's contents.
.. caution::
You should protect these API credentials as you would a password. Users who
can read this file can use these credentials to issue some types of API calls
on your behalf, limited by the permissions assigned to the account. Users who
can cause Certbot to run using these credentials can complete a ``dns-01``
challenge to acquire new certificates or revoke existing certificates for
domains these credentials are authorized to manage.
Certbot will emit a warning if it detects that the credentials file can be
accessed by other users on your system. The warning reads "Unsafe permissions
on credentials configuration file", followed by the path to the credentials
file. This warning will be emitted each time Certbot uses the credentials file,
including for renewal, and cannot be silenced except by addressing the issue
(e.g., by using a command like ``chmod 600`` to restrict access to the file).
