Terraform google_project_iam_binding deletes GCP compute engine default service account from IAM principals
Problem
Terraform GCP google_service_account and google_project_iam_binding resource to attach roles/editor deleted Google APIs Service Agent and GCP default compute engine default service account in the IAM principals. GKE cluster cannot be deleted / created due to the deletion in IAM principals, although it still remains in IAM Service Accounts.
The problem here is it disappears (which I wrote "deleted") from the IAM principals, and the Compute Engine default service account is compromised, hence no more able to manage Compute Engine, including GKE cluster/nodes.
Question
I believe this is a Terraform bug but please help understand if there are things I am missing which can prevent the problem.
Please also advise if there is a way to restore the Compute Engine default service account back in IAM principals with the Editor role.

Reproduction Steps
Tested twice in different GCP projects and the issue was reproduced in the same manner.
Start
In a GCP project, starts without Compute Engine enabled, hence no Compute Engine default service account.
Enable Compute Engine API.
Compute Engine default service account gets created and appears both in IAM Principals and IAM Service Accounts.
Terraform apply
Apply the terraform script to create a service account with IAM bindings.
variable "PROJECT_ID" {
type = string
description = "GCP Project ID"
default = "test-tf-sa"
}
variable "REGION" {
type = string
description = "GCP Region"
default = "us-central1"
}
variable "roles_to_grant_to_service_account" {
description = "IAM roles to grant to the service account"
type = list(string)
default = [
"roles/editor",
"roles/iam.serviceAccountAdmin",
"roles/resourcemanager.projectIamAdmin"
]
}
provider "google" {
project = var.PROJECT_ID
region = var.REGION
}
resource "google_service_account" "terraform" {
account_id = "terraform"
display_name = "terraform service account"
}
resource "google_project_iam_binding" "terraform" {
project = var.PROJECT_ID
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Grant the service account to have the roles
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
members = [
"serviceAccount:${google_service_account.terraform.email}"
]
for_each = toset(var.roles_to_grant_to_service_account)
role = each.value
}

Terraform has deleted the Compute Engine default service account from the IAM principals
Immediately after the terraform apply, verify the IAM principals and the Compute Engine default service account has been deleted in the IAM principal view.
As suggested by @JohnHanley, clicked Include Google-provided role grants to unhide Google-managed service accounts. The original Compute Engine default service account [email protected] has gone in the IAM principals view.
The gcloud projects get-iam-policy command does not show the Compute Engine default service account [email protected].

The service account though still remains in the IAM Service Accounts menu.
Create GKE
Enable the Kubernetes Engine API, and create a GKE cluster. At this point, the impact of Compute Engine default service account did not hinder the GKE creation. It may be because of the eventual consistency.
terraform destroy
Run terraform destroy.

Another service account for GKE
Created another service account that has compute.admin roles, and used it to create/delete the GKE cluster(s). However, once the Compute Engine default service account has been compromised, keep having the GCP GKE - Google Compute Engine: Not all instances running in IGM issue.
Goal to achieve
Bring the Compute Engine default service account back into the IAM principals like in the snapshot below, and be able to manage Compute Engines and GKE nodes.

I wish I had read these before getting into this issue as another bites the sand.
Usability improvements for *_iam_policy and *_iam_binding resources #8354
Description I'm sure you know by now there is a decent amount of care required when using the *_iam_policy and *_iam_binding versions of IAM resources. There are a number of "be careful!" and "note" warnings in the resources that outline some of the potential pitfalls, but there are hidden dangers as well. For example, using the google_project_iam_policy resource may inadvertently remove Google's service agents' (https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/service-agents) IAM roles from the project. Or, the dangers of using google_storage_bucket_iam_policy and google_storage_bucket_iam_binding, which may remove the default IAM roles granted to projectViewers:, projectEditors:, and projectOwners: of the containing project.
The largest issue I encounter with people running into the above situations is that the initial terraform plan does not show that anything is being removed. While the documentation for google_project_iam_policy notes that it's best to terraform import the resource beforehand, this is in fact applicable to all *_iam_policy and *_iam_binding resources. Unfortunately this is tedious, potentially forgotten, and not something that you can abstract away in a Terraform module.
Cause
As @toteem pointed out
google_project_iam_bindingresource is Authoritative which mean it will delete any binding that is NOT explicitly specified in the terraform configuration.
Authoritative for a given role. Updates the IAM policy to grant a role to a list of members. Other roles within the IAM policy for the project are preserved.
Not sure who can get the clear idea what terraform does with google_project_iam_binding but as GCP has identified, Terraform google_project_iam_binding has deleted all the accounts not in the members attribute that have "roles/Editor" role.
Still, I believe this is a terraform defect.
As per the Google APIs Service Agent document, it is the essential service accounts that GCP internally manages. Terraform should not delete any such GCP managed internal service accounts as it bring the GCP projects down. I doubt in what use cases do we need this to happen.
Some Google Cloud services need access to your resources so that they can act on your behalf. For example, when you use Cloud Run to run a container, the service needs access to any Pub/Sub topics that can trigger the container.
To meet this need, Google creates and manages service accounts for many Google Cloud services. These service accounts are known as Google-managed service accounts. You might see Google-managed service accounts in your project's IAM policy, in audit logs, or on the IAM page in the Cloud Console.
Google-managed service accounts are not listed in the Service accounts page in the Cloud Console.
Google APIs Service Agent. Your project is likely to contain a service account named the Google APIs Service Agent, with an email address that uses the following format: [email protected]
This service account runs internal Google processes on your behalf. It is automatically granted the Editor role (roles/editor) on the project.
Solution
Use google_project_iam_member.
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Service Account Roles
# Need roles/resourcemanager.projectIamAdmin to be able to execute this.
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# resource "google_project_iam_binding" "terraform" {
# project = var.PROJECT_ID
#
# #--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# # Grant the service account to have the roles
# #--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# members = [
# "serviceAccount:${google_service_account.terraform.email}"
# ]
# for_each = toset(var.roles_to_grant_to_service_account)
# role = each.value
# }
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Service Account Roles
# Need roles/resourcemanager.projectIamAdmin to be able to execute this.
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
resource "google_project_iam_member" "terraform" {
project = local.PROJECT_ID
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Grant the service account to have the roles
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
member = "serviceAccount:${google_service_account.terraform.email}"
for_each = toset(var.roles_to_grant_to_service_account)
role = each.value
}
Fix
In case the GCP internal service accounts have been deleted by google_project_iam_binding.
According to GCP:
To fix this issue you can add the service agent in the IAM page using the Add option at the top. The principal will be "${PROJECT_ID}@cloudservices.gserviceaccount.com" and add the editor role.
As per the error message, add '[email protected]' in IAM.
'compute.subnetworks.useExternalIp' permission for 'projects/1079157603081/regions/us-central1/subnetworks/default' (when acting as '[email protected]') (truncated).
The Google APIs Service Agent is restored in the view.
Create GKE.
Conclusion
I would never use them as I doubt if any use cases exist which we need to destroy other accounts that have the same roles.
- google_project_iam_member
- google_service_account_iam_binding

You can restore the service accounts using the “gcloud beta iam service-accounts undelete” command.
If you accidentally delete a service account, you can try to undelete the service account instead of creating a new service account.
Please review this link if you need more info. You may notice that in order to restore a deleted account you may need the 21 digit unique ID. If you do not have this ID for the account, you could try this command :
gcloud logging read --freshness=30d --format='table(timestamp,resource.labels.email_id,resource.labels.project_id,resource.labels.unique_id)' protoPayload.methodName="google.iam.admin.v1.DeleteServiceAccount" resource.type="service_account" logName:"cloudaudit.googleapis.com%2Factivity"'
or this command:
gcloud logging read --freshness=30d protoPayload.methodName="google.iam.admin.v1.DeleteServiceAccount" | grep 'email_id|unique_id'
