# Step 1: Download service account IaC template (Web UI)

Step 1: download the service account IaC template for the Google Cloud integration in the Web UI

Before you can create a Cloud Environment, you must download an infrastructure as code (IaC) template declaring a tightly-scoped Google service account that gives Snyk permission to scan the configuration of resources in your Google Project.

The template also enables a set of [Google service APIs](https://cloud.google.com/service-usage/docs/enabled-service) for your Google Cloud Project. This ensures that Snyk can use the necessary APIs to scan your Project's resources.

You will use this IaC template to provision the role in [Step 2: Create the Google service account](/scan-fix-and-prevent/scan-with-snyk/snyk-iac/cloud-platform-integrations/google-cloud-integration/google-cloud-integration-web-ui/step-2-create-the-google-service-account-web-ui.md).

## Download the IaC template

1. In the [Snyk Web UI](https://app.snyk.io/), navigate to **Integrations** > **Cloud platforms**.
2. Select **Google Cloud**.
3. In the **Add Google Cloud Environment** modal, select the **Terraform** button to download a `snyk-permissions-google.tf` file:

You can now proceed to [Step 2: Create the Google service account.](/scan-fix-and-prevent/scan-with-snyk/snyk-iac/cloud-platform-integrations/google-cloud-integration/google-cloud-integration-web-ui/step-2-create-the-google-service-account-web-ui.md)

{% hint style="info" %}
You can also add a cloud environment from **Settings** > **Cloud environments**. See [View Environments, Add a Cloud environment](/scan-fix-and-prevent/scan-with-snyk/snyk-iac/getting-started-with-cloud-scans/manage-cloud-environments/view-add-and-remove-environments.md).

## 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.snyk.io/scan-fix-and-prevent/scan-with-snyk/snyk-iac/cloud-platform-integrations/google-cloud-integration/google-cloud-integration-web-ui/step-1-download-service-account-iac-template-web-ui.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.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
