Google Compute Engine Dynamic Inventory

Hi All,

I am having issues setting up the GCE Dynamic Inventory with my AWX instance.

I want to set up the dynamic Inventory so that it uses the machine’s default service account instead of a regular service account.

When I set the Dynamic Inventory source as Google Compute Engine, it just lets me select a GCE credential (GCP service account) It does not let me select the machine credentials:

1704×503 36.7 KB

However, if I use ansible through CLI commands I can use the machine credentials without having to create a new service account with a private key:

ansible-inventory -i test.gcp.yml

where test.gcp.yml has:

projects:
  - some-project
auth_kind: machineaccount

How can I achieve the same functionality from AWX? Do I need to leverage custom scripts?

Thanks for the help.
