What it does. Retrieves the current Google Cloud IAM policy, prepares a proposed change and replays recent access logs with the Policy Simulator. It analyses revoked access and, only if none is found, asks for approval before applying the change.
When to use it. For simulating or applying IAM v1 allow-policy changes on projects, folders or organisations. It is not for IAM v2 deny policies, VPC Service Controls or general policy troubleshooting.
