This guide will help you to:
|
|
|
|
- Install Teleport `(=teleport.version=)`.
|
|
- Set up Teleport to access your PostgreSQL on Google Cloud SQL.
|
|
- Connect to your databases through Teleport.

## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/edition-prereqs-tabs.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
- Google Cloud account
|
|
- Command-line client `psql` installed and added to your system's `PATH` environment variable.
|
|
- A host, e.g., a Compute Engine instance, where you will run the Teleport Database
|
|
Service
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/tctl.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
## Step 1/7. Enable Cloud SQL IAM authentication
|
|
|
|
Teleport uses [IAM database authentication](https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/authentication)
|
|
with Cloud SQL PostgreSQL instances.
|
|
|
|
If you're [creating](https://console.cloud.google.com/sql/choose-instance-engine)
|
|
a new PostgreSQL instance, make sure to add the `cloudsql.iam_authentication`
|
|
database flag under "Customize your instance / Flags" section:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
To check whether IAM authentication is enabled for an existing Cloud SQL instance,
|
|
look for the flag on the Configuration panel on the instance's Overview page:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
If it isn't enabled, you can add this flag using the "Edit configuration" dialog
|
|
at the bottom of the Configuration panel. Note, changing this setting may
|
|
require a database instance reboot.
|
|
|
|
## Step 2/7. Create a service account for the database
|
|
|
|
Teleport uses service accounts to connect to Cloud SQL databases.
|
|
|
|
### Create a service account
|
|
|
|
Go to the IAM & Admin [Service Accounts](https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts)
|
|
page and create a new service account:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Press "Create".
|
|
|
|
### Grant permissions
|
|
|
|
On the second step grant this service account the "Cloud SQL Instance User" role
|
|
which will allow it to connect to Cloud SQL instances using IAM token for
|
|
authentication:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Press "Done".
|
|
|
|
### Configure authentication for your service account
|
|
|
|
Now go back to the Users page of your Cloud SQL instance and add a new user
|
|
account. In the sidebar, choose "Cloud IAM" authentication type and add the
|
|
service account you've just created:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Press "Add" and your Users table should look similar to this:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
See [Creating and managing IAM users](https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/create-manage-iam-users)
|
|
in Google Cloud documentation for more info.
|
|
|
|
## Step 3/7. Create a service account for Teleport Database Service
|
|
|
|
The final part of GCP configuration is to create a service account for the
|
|
Teleport Database Service.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Create a service account
|
|
|
|
Go to the [Service Accounts](https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts)
|
|
page and create a service account:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Grant permissions
|
|
|
|
Assign the Service Account the following IAM roles:
|
|
|
|
- "Service Account Token Creator" will allow the Database Service to generate
|
|
IAM authentication tokens when connecting to the database as the service account user
|
|
we created above.
|
|
- Either "Cloud SQL Viewer" or "Cloud SQL Admin":
|
|
- "Cloud SQL Viewer" will allow the Database Service to automatically download
|
|
your Cloud SQL instance's root CA certificate, but does not support client
|
|
certificate authentication.
|
|
- "Cloud SQL Admin" will allow the Database Service to automatically download
|
|
your Cloud SQL instance's root CA certificate and generate an
|
|
ephemeral client certificate when the GCP instance is configured to
|
|
"Allow only SSL connections."
|
|
|
|
Assign it the "Service Account Token Creator" role:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
<Admonition type="note" title="Service account permissions">
|
|
"Service Account Token Creator", "Cloud SQL Viewer", and "Cloud SQL Admin"
|
|
IAM roles include more permissions than the Database Service needs. To further
|
|
restrict the service account, you can create a role that includes only the
|
|
following permissions:
|
|
```ini
|
|
# Used to generate IAM auth tokens when connecting to a database instance.
|
|
iam.serviceAccounts.getAccessToken
|
|
# Used to auto-download the instance's root CA certificate.
|
|
cloudsql.instances.get
|
|
# Used to generate an ephemeral client certificate when the GCP instance
|
|
# is configured to "Allow only SSL connections." (optional)
|
|
cloudsql.sslCerts.createEphemeral
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</Admonition>
|
|
|
|
### Create a key for the service account
|
|
|
|
Once created, go to that service account's Keys tab and create a new key:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Make sure to choose JSON format:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Save the file. The Teleport Database Service will need it to be able to generate
|
|
IAM auth tokens.
|
|
|
|
## Step 4/7. Gather Cloud SQL instance information
|
|
|
|
To connect a Cloud SQL database to Teleport, you'll need to gather a few pieces
|
|
of information about the instance.
|
|
|
|
- GCP Project ID.
|
|
|
|
You can normally see it in the organization view at the top of the GCP dashboard.
|
|
|
|
- Cloud SQL instance ID.
|
|
|
|
The instance ID is the name of your Cloud SQL instance shown at the top of the
|
|
Overview page:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Cloud SQL instance endpoint.
|
|
|
|
You will use the instance's public IP address to connect to it. It can be viewed
|
|
on the "Connect to this instance" panel on the Overview page:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Cloud SQL instance root certificate.
|
|
|
|
The instance's root certificate is required so Teleport can validate the
|
|
certificate presented by the database instance. You can download `server-ca.pem`
|
|
file from the Connections tab under Security section:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Step 5/7. Set up the Teleport Database Service
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/database-access/token.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
Install Teleport on the host where you will run the Teleport Database Service:
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/install-linux.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
### Create a user
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/database-access/create-user.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
## Step 6/7. Set up the Teleport Database service
|
|
|
|
Below is an example of a Database Service configuration file that proxies
|
|
a single Cloud SQL PostgreSQL database:
|
|
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["oss", "enterprise"]}>
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
version: v3
|
|
teleport:
|
|
data_dir: /var/lib/teleport-db
|
|
nodename: test
|
|
# Proxy address to connect to. Note that it has to be the proxy address
|
|
# because the Database Service always connects to the cluster over a reverse
|
|
# tunnel.
|
|
proxy_server: teleport.example.com:3080
|
|
db_service:
|
|
enabled: "yes"
|
|
# This section contains definitions of all databases proxied by this
|
|
# service, can contain multiple items.
|
|
databases:

|
# Name of the database proxy instance, used to reference in CLI.
|
|

|
|
# Free-form description of the database proxy instance.
|
|

|
|
# Database protocol.
|
|

|
|
# Database endpoint. For Cloud SQL use instance's public IP address.
|
|
uri: "35.1.2.3:5432"
|
|
# Path to Cloud SQL instance root certificate you downloaded above.
|
|
ca_cert_file: /path/to/cloudsql/instance/root.pem
|
|
# GCP specific configuration when connecting Cloud SQL instance.
|
|
gcp:
|
|
# GCP project ID.
|
|
project_id: "<project-id>"
|
|
# Cloud SQL instance ID.
|
|
instance_id: "test"
|
|
# Labels to assign to the database, used in RBAC.
|
|
static_labels:
|
|
env: dev
|
|
auth_service:
|
|
enabled: "no"
|
|
ssh_service:
|
|
enabled: "no"
|
|
proxy_service:
|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["cloud"]}>
|
|
|

|
|
static_labels:

|
|

|
|

|
|
ssh_service:
|
|

|
|
proxy_service:
|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
|
|
<Notice
|
|
type="tip"
|
|
>
|
|
|
|
A single Teleport process can run multiple different services, for example
|
|
multiple Database Access instances as well as other services such the SSH
|
|
Service or Application Service.
|
|
|
|
</Notice>
|
|
|
|
Start the Database Service:
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ teleport start --config=/path/to/teleport-db.yaml --token=/tmp/token
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### GCP credentials
|
|
|
|
The Teleport Database Service must have credentials of `teleport-db-service` GCP
|
|
service account we created
|
|
[above](#step-37-create-a-service-account-for-teleport-database-service) in order to be
|
|
able to generate IAM auth tokens.
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to ensure that is to set the `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS`
|
|
environment variable to point to the JSON credentials file you downloaded
|
|
earlier.
|
|
|
|
See [Authenticating as a service account](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/production)
|
|
in the Google Cloud documentation for more details.
|
|
|
|
## Step 7/7. Connect
|
|
|
|
Once the Database Service has joined the cluster, log in to see the available
|
|
databases:
|
|
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["oss", "enterprise"]}>
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ tsh login --proxy=teleport.example.com --user=alice
|
|
$ tsh db ls
|
|
# Name Description Labels
|
|
# -------- ------------------------ --------
|
|
# cloudsql GCP Cloud SQL PostgreSQL env=dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["cloud"]}>
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ tsh login --proxy=mytenant.teleport.sh --user=alice
|
|
$ tsh db ls
|
|
# Name Description Labels
|
|
# -------- ------------------------ --------
|
|
# cloudsql GCP Cloud SQL PostgreSQL env=dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
|
|
Note that you will only be able to see databases your role has access to. See
|
|
our [RBAC](../rbac.mdx) guide for more details.
|
|
|
|
To retrieve credentials for a database and connect to it:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ tsh db connect cloudsql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can optionally specify the database name and the user to use by default
|
|
when connecting to the database instance:
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ tsh db connect --db-user=teleport@<project-id>.iam --db-name=postgres cloudsql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Admonition
|
|
type="note"
|
|
title="What database user name to use?"
|
|
>
|
|
|
|
When connecting to the database, use the name of the database service account
|
|
that you added as an IAM database user
|
|
[above](#step-27-create-a-service-account-for-the-database), minus the
|
|
`.gserviceaccount.com` suffix. The database user name is shown on the Users
|
|
page of your Cloud SQL instance.
|
|
|
|
</Admonition>
|
|
|
|
To log out of the database and remove credentials:
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
# Remove credentials for a particular database instance.
|
|
$ tsh db logout cloudsql
|
|
# Remove credentials for all database instances.
|
|
$ tsh db logout
|
|
```
|
