Overview

Datashare 2.0 is a major release that incorporates new delivery channels for Cloud Storage and Pub/Sub topics. Additionally, it introduces new IAM roles used by Datashare for granting/sharing access to GCP objects.

Enhancements

• Added Cloud Storage support to policies.
• Added Pub/Sub support to policies.
• The navigation sub-menu 'Batch' is renamed to 'Channels'.
• Added multi-project support.

Breaking Changes

• The Datashare API manager custom IAM role ID was renamed from custom.ds.api.mgr to datashare.api.manager.
  • If performing a Datashare upgrade, you will need to manually grant access for the account ds-api-mgr to the new role datashare.api.manager, and revoke and delete custom.ds.api.mgr.
• For granting BigQuery data viewer access to datasets and views/tables, Datashare previously granted the role bigquery.dataViewer to each respective account at the object level. With the new changes, Datashare will now grant access to the new role datashare.bigquery.dataViewer.
  • If performing a Datashare upgrade, you will need to manually revoke access for users granted access through Datashare to bigquery.dataViewer. Datashare will automatically sync existing users to the new datashare.bigquery.dataViewer role.
