I am very new to GCP and need some help on how to access GCP project.

I have an assessment given by an employer to install an application in GCP. I am provided with a company "non Gmail" emailID/password, and a link to the project. I have looked for resources online but do not know how to access this project. when I try to access via browser using this email, I get an error saying this is not Gmail id. Can someone guide me how I can access a gcp project with non Gmail id? I appreciate your help.

Access your google project:

[ INSERT project link: https://console.cloud.google.com/home/dashboard?project=single-project ]

Username: user@companyname

Password: *******

Update:

The user name had a typo and I was provided with correct user details later.

  • You cannot unless the email address is managed by Google Workspace or Identity Platform. If it is from one of those accounts, you would get a different error. Let the administrator know about your problem. Only they can help you. – John Hanley Mar 06 '22 at 03:37
  • I have updated my post. Can you tell me how I can access. I am sure there is a way to access. I am familiar with AWS but GCP is new for me. In aws there are some accounts which only have programmatic access. Can this be similar IAM user? – syed fayaz Mar 06 '22 at 03:45
  • Please reread my comment. You are not using a supported email address. Only Gmail, Workspace, or Identity Platform based emails work. – John Hanley Mar 06 '22 at 04:13

You cannot access the GCP Projects with non-gmail Id unless it is associated with Google Workspace or Cloud Identity account.

If the email doesn't work, the company probably didn't add the email account to the Google Project (IAM Roles), or the email is not registered with a Cloud Identity. You can only log into the GCP console using Google's credentials , and for that you need a google user account. If your account is a company email account, the admin has to create the user on their identity.

Refer to the link for accessing a gcp account .

EDIT:

As @syed fayaz said, also we need to check whether we have any typing error in credentials.
