# Update Permissions for GCP Database Services

Prisma Cloud DSPM continually evolves and enhances its platform. In this ongoing process, we frequently incorporate updates to bolster support for a wider array of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) databases.

Whenever a new database becomes part of our supported services, Prisma Cloud DSPM takes proactive steps to update the permissions list associated with the Dig-ReadOnly Service Account. These permissions are crucial for Prisma Cloud DSPM to access critical metadata related to your assets, including information such as size, name, and region.

This strategic approach empowers us to detect and safeguard your valuable assets effectively. It's worth noting that Prisma Cloud DSPM's own environment exclusively handles the read-only API calls, ensuring the highest level of security and confidentiality.

### Update permissions

To ensure the seamless integration of these permissions, it's imperative that users take the following steps:

1. In Prisma Cloud DSPM, click **Preferences**. The Integrations tab opens by default.
2. In the Cloud Platforms section, go to the **Google Cloud thumbnail**, and click **Configure**. The Google Cloud Connected Projects window opens. ![](/files/FzpmLx3Kn3t8RPfyVS8g)
3. To update the permissions for a specific account, click **Update Required** to run the update.\

   By following these instructions, users can ensure that their permissions are up-to-date and aligned with the latest enhancements in Prisma Cloud DSPM's platform, maintaining the utmost security and effectiveness in asset monitoring and protection.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.prismacloud.io/content-collections/data-security-posture-management/how-to-articles/update-permissions-for-gcp-database-services.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
