DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute machine-images get-iam-policy displays the IAMpolicy associated with a Compute Engine machine image in a project. If formattedas JSON, the output can be edited and used as a policy file for gcloud computemachine-images get-iam-policy set-iam-policy. The output includes anetag field that identifies the version emitted and allows detectionof concurrent policy updates; see $ gcloud compute machine-images get-iam-policyset-iam-policy for additional details.

To print the IAM policy for a given machine image, run:
gcloudcomputemachine-imagesget-iam-policymy-machine-image
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
Machine image resource - The machine image to display the IAM policy for. Thisrepresents a Cloud resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments inthis group but can be set in other ways.

LIST COMMAND FLAGS
--filter=EXPRESSION
Apply a Boolean filterEXPRESSION to each resource itemto be listed. If the expression evaluatesTrue, then that item islisted. For more details and examples of filter expressions, run $gcloud topic filters. This flaginteracts with other flags that are applied in this order:--flatten,--sort-by,--filter,--limit.
--limit=LIMIT
Maximum number of resources to list. The default isunlimited. Thisflag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order:--flatten,--sort-by,--filter,--limit.
--page-size=PAGE_SIZE
Some services group resource list output into pages. This flag specifies themaximum number of resources per page. The default is determined by the serviceif it supports paging, otherwise it isunlimited (no paging).Paging may be applied before or after--filter and--limit depending on the service.
--sort-by=[FIELD,…]
Comma-separated list of resource field key names to sort by. The default orderis ascending. Prefix a field with ``~´´ for descending order on thatfield. This flag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order:--flatten,--sort-by,--filter,--limit.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
These flags are available to all commands:--access-token-file,--account,--billing-project,--configuration,--flags-file,--flatten,--format,--help,--impersonate-service-account,--log-http,--project,--quiet,--trace-token,--user-output-enabled,--verbosity.
