Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

• python >= 2.6

• google-auth >= 1.3.0

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
auth_kind string / required	The type of credential used. Choices: application machineaccount serviceaccount
env_type string	Specifies which Ansible environment you’re running this module within. This should not be set unless you know what you’re doing. This only alters the User Agent string for any API requests.
kms_key_name string	The resource name of the Cloud KMS CryptoKey to be used to protect access to messages published on this topic. Your project’s PubSub service account (service-{{PROJECT_NUMBER}}@gcp-sa-pubsub.iam.gserviceaccount.com) must have roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyEncrypterDecrypter to use this feature. The expected format is projects/*/locations/*/keyRings/*/cryptoKeys/* .
labels dictionary	A set of key/value label pairs to assign to this Topic.
message_storage_policy dictionary	Policy constraining the set of Google Cloud Platform regions where messages published to the topic may be stored. If not present, then no constraints are in effect.
allowed_persistence_regions list / elements=string / required	A list of IDs of GCP regions where messages that are published to the topic may be persisted in storage. Messages published by publishers running in non-allowed GCP regions (or running outside of GCP altogether) will be routed for storage in one of the allowed regions. An empty list means that no regions are allowed, and is not a valid configuration.
name string / required	Name of the topic.
project string	The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
scopes list / elements=string	Array of scopes to be used
service_account_contents jsonarg	The contents of a Service Account JSON file, either in a dictionary or as a JSON string that represents it.
