This page shows you how to create an Eventarc trigger so that a Cloud Run service can receive events from another Google Cloud service.

Eventarc is a Google Cloud service that lets you build event-driven architectures without having to implement, customize, or maintain the underlying infrastructure.

You can create an Eventarc trigger by specifying filters for the trigger and configuring the routing of the event, including the event source and the target Cloud Run service. When the specified event or set of events match the filters, this causes your Cloud Run service to be invoked automatically, in response to the events. A service that uses Eventarc triggers is called an event-driven service. Events sent to your Cloud Run service are received in the form of HTTP requests.

The following event types trigger requests to your service:

You can also create an Eventarc trigger using the Google Cloud CLI or through the Eventarc console page. For instructions on creating a trigger for a specific provider, event type, and destination, filter the list to learn more about Eventarc's Event providers and destinations.

Trigger location

When you create an Eventarc trigger, you specify a location for it. This should match the location of the Google Cloud resource that you want to monitor for events. In most scenarios, you should also deploy your event-driven Cloud Run service in the same region. For more information, see Understand Eventarc locations.

Trigger identity

Your Eventarc trigger's service account must have permission to invoke your service. You may need to verify that the Compute Engine default service account has the correct permissions to invoke your service. For more information, see Required roles.

Before you begin
  1. Make sure you have set up a new project for Cloud Run as described in the setup page.

  2. Enable the Artifact Registry, Cloud Build, Cloud Run Admin API, and Eventarc APIs:

    Enable the APIs

Required roles

You or your administrator must grant the deployer account, the trigger identity, and optionally, the Pub/Sub service agent the following IAM roles.

Required roles for the trigger identity
  1. Make note of the Compute Engine default service account as you will you attach it to an Eventarc trigger to represent the identity of the trigger for testing purposes. This service account is automatically created after enabling or using a Google Cloud service that uses Compute Engine, and with the following email format:

    PROJECT_NUMBER-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com

    Replace PROJECT_NUMBER with your Google Cloud project number. You can find your project number on the Welcome page of the Google Cloud console or by running the following command:

    gcloud projects describe PROJECT_ID --format='value(projectNumber)'

    For production environments, we strongly recommend creating a new service account and granting it one or more IAM roles that contain the minimum permissions required and follow the principle of least privilege.

    Note:

    The iam.automaticIamGrantsForDefaultServiceAccounts organization policy constraint prevents the Editor role from being automatically granted to default service accounts. If you created your organization after May 3, 2024, this constraint is enforced by default.

    We strongly recommend that you enforce this constraint to disable the automatic role grant. If you disable the automatic role grant, you must decide which roles to grant to the default service accounts, and then grant these roles yourself.

    If the default service account already has the Editor role, we recommend that you replace the Editor role with less permissive roles.To safely modify the service account's roles, use Policy Simulator to see the impact of the change, and then grant and revoke the appropriate roles.

  2. By default, Cloud Run services are only callable by Project Owners, Project Editors, and Cloud Run Admins and Invokers. You can control access on a per-service basis; however, for testing purposes, grant the Cloud Run Invoker role (run.invoker) on the Google Cloud project to the Compute Engine service account. This grants the role on all Cloud Run services and jobs in a project.
    gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding PROJECT_ID \
        --member=serviceAccount:PROJECT_NUMBER-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com \
        --role=roles/run.invoker

    Note that if you create a trigger for an authenticated Cloud Run service without granting the Cloud Run Invoker role, the trigger is created successfully and is active. However, the trigger will not work as expected and a message similar to the following appears in the logs:

    The request was not authenticated. Either allow unauthenticated invocations or set the proper Authorization header.
  3. Grant the Eventarc Event Receiver role (roles/eventarc.eventReceiver) on the project to the Compute Engine default service account so that the Eventarc trigger can receive events from event providers.
    gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding PROJECT_ID \
        --member=serviceAccount:PROJECT_NUMBER-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com \
        --role=roles/eventarc.eventReceiver
Optional role for the Pub/Sub service agent Create a trigger for services

You can specify a trigger after you deploy a service.

Click the tab for instructions using the tool of your choice.

Console
  1. Deploy your Cloud Run service using containers or from source.

  2. In the Google Cloud console, go to Cloud Run:

    Go to Cloud Run

  3. From the list of services, click an existing service.

  4. On the Service details page, navigate to the Triggers tab.

  5. Click Add trigger, and select an option.

  6. In the Eventarc trigger pane, modify the trigger details as follows:

    1. In the Trigger name field, enter a name for the trigger, or use the default name.

    2. Select a Trigger type from the list to specify one of the following trigger types:

      • Google Sources to specify triggers for Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage, Firestore, and other Google event providers.

      • Third-party to integrate with non-Google providers that offer an Eventarc source. For more information, see Third-party events in Eventarc.

    3. Select an event provider from the Event provider list, to select a product that provides the type of event for triggering your service. For the list of event providers, see Event providers and destinations.

    4. Select an event type from the Event type list. Your trigger configuration varies depending on the supported event type. For more information, see Event types.

    5. If the Region field is enabled, select a location for the Eventarc trigger. In general, the location of an Eventarc trigger should match the location of the Google Cloud resource that you want to monitor for events. In most scenarios, you should also deploy your service in the same region. See Understand Eventarc locations for more details about Eventarc trigger locations.

    6. In the Service account field, select a service account. Eventarc triggers are linked to service accounts to use as an identity when invoking your service. Your Eventarc trigger's service account must have the permission to invoke your service. By default, Cloud Run uses the Compute Engine default service account.

    7. Optionally, specify the Service URL path to send the incoming request to. This is the relative path on the destination service to which the events for the trigger should be sent. For example: /, /route, route, and route/subroute.

    8. Once you've completed the required fields, click Save trigger.

  7. After creating the trigger, verify its health by ensuring that there is a checkmark check_circle on the Triggers tab.

    Note: Although a trigger is created immediately, it can take up to two minutes for a trigger to propagate and filter events.
gcloud
  1. Deploy your Cloud Run service using containers or from source.

  2. Run the following command to create a trigger that filters events:

    gcloud eventarc triggers create TRIGGER_NAME  \
        --location=REGION \
        --destination-run-service=SERVICE  \
        --destination-run-region=REGION \
        --event-filters="EVENT_FILTER" \
        --service-account=PROJECT_NUMBER-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com
    

    Replace:

    Each event-filters flag specifies a type of event, with the function triggering only when an event meets all of the criteria specified in its event-filters flags. Each trigger must have an event-filters flag specifying a supported event type, such as a new document written to Firestore or a file uploaded to Cloud Storage. You can't change the event filter type after creation. To change the event filter type, you must create a new trigger and delete the old one. Optionally, you can repeat the --event-filters flag with a supported filter in the form ATTRIBUTE=VALUE to add more filters.

Terraform

To create an Eventarc trigger for a Cloud Run service, see Create a trigger using Terraform.

Create a trigger for functions

Click the tab for instructions using the tool of your choice.

Console

When you use the Google Cloud console to create a function, you can also add a trigger to your function. Follow these steps to create a trigger for your function:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to Cloud Run:

    Go to Cloud Run

  2. Click Write a function, and enter the function details. For more information about configuring functions during deployment, see Deploy functions.

  3. In the Trigger section, click Add trigger.

  4. Select an option.

  5. In the Eventarc trigger pane, modify the trigger details as follows:

    1. Enter a name for the trigger in the Trigger name field, or use the default name.

    2. Select a Trigger type from the list:

      • Google Sources to specify triggers for Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage, Firestore, and other Google event providers.

      • Third-party to integrate with non-Google providers that offer an Eventarc source. For more information, see Third-party events in Eventarc.

    3. Select an event provider from the Event provider list, to select a product that provides the type of event for triggering your function. For the list of event providers, see Event providers and destinations.

    4. Select an event type from the Event type list. Your trigger configuration varies depending on the supported event type. For more information, see Event types.

    5. If the Region field is enabled, select a location for the Eventarc trigger. In general, the location of an Eventarc trigger should match the location of the Google Cloud resource that you want to monitor for events. In most scenarios, you should also deploy your function in the same region. See Understand Eventarc locations for more details about Eventarc trigger locations.

    6. In the Service account field, select a service account. Eventarc triggers are linked to service accounts to use as an identity when invoking your function. Your Eventarc trigger's service account must have the permission to invoke your function. By default, Cloud Run uses the Compute Engine default service account.

    7. Optionally, specify the Service URL path to send the incoming request to. This is the relative path on the destination service to which the events for the trigger should be sent. For example: /, /route, route, and route/subroute.

  6. Once you've completed the required fields, click Save trigger.

gcloud

When you create a function using the gcloud CLI, you must first deploy your function, and then create a trigger. Follow these steps to create a trigger for your function:

  1. Run the following command in the directory that contains the sample code to deploy your function:

    gcloud run deploy FUNCTION \
            --source . \
            --function FUNCTION_ENTRYPOINT \
            --base-image BASE_IMAGE_ID \
            --region REGION
    

    Replace:

  2. Run the following command to create a trigger that filters events:

    gcloud eventarc triggers create TRIGGER_NAME  \
        --location=REGION \
        --destination-run-service=FUNCTION  \
        --destination-run-region=REGION \
        --event-filters="EVENT_FILTER" \
        --service-account=PROJECT_NUMBER-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com
    

    Replace:

    Each event-filters flag specifies a type of event, with the function triggering only when an event meets all of the criteria specified in its event-filters flags. Each trigger must have an event-filters flag specifying a supported event type, such as a new document written to Firestore or a file uploaded to Cloud Storage. You can't change the event filter type after creation. To change the event filter type, you must create a new trigger and delete the old one. Optionally, you can repeat the --event-filters flag with a supported filter in the form ATTRIBUTE=VALUE to add more filters.

Terraform

To create an Eventarc trigger for a Cloud Run function, see Create a trigger using Terraform.

Set the Pub/Sub acknowledgement deadline

Event-driven Cloud Run functions are implemented using Eventarc in combination with a Pub/Sub subscription. By default, the acknowledgement (ack) deadline of this Pub/Sub subscription is 10 seconds. This setting is insufficient for many functions, and can have the effect of causing unwanted duplicate executions.

We recommend that you set the ack deadline for your service or function to the maximum value of 600 seconds as follows:

Console

After you deploy your function, follow these steps to modify the function's ack deadline:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to Cloud Run:

    Go to Cloud Run

  2. Locate the function you want to update in the Services list, and click to open the details of that function.

  3. Open the Triggers tab.

  4. Click the trigger name to open Trigger details.

  5. Click the Topic link to open the topic editing pane.

  6. Click the Subscription ID name to go to the subscription pane, and click Edit at the top of the page.

  7. Set the value for the Acknowledgement Deadline to 600 and click Update to save the change.

gcloud

Update the ack deadline per trigger to the maximum value of 600 seconds. Note that the following commands reference variables (TRIGGER_NAME and REGION) whose values you set in the previous steps.

## Per Cloud Run function:

# Update Ack Deadline to max (600s)
SUBSCRIPTION_ID=$(gcloud eventarc triggers describe "$TRIGGER_NAME" --location $REGION --format json | jq -r '.transport.pubsub.subscription')
gcloud pubsub subscriptions update "$SUBSCRIPTION_ID" --ack-deadline=600

Perform a bulk updated on all service and function triggers to set their ack deadlines to 600 seconds:

### Match all Cloud Run service triggers and update all deadlines to 600s (max timeout)
### This will change ALL Cloud Run Service and Cloud Run function
TRIGGER_NAMES=($(gcloud eventarc triggers list | awk '/Cloud Run service/ {print $1}'))

if [ ${#TRIGGER_NAMES[@]} -eq 0 ]; then
  echo "No matching triggers found"
fi

for trigger in "${TRIGGER_NAMES[@]}"; do
echo "Updating ack deadline for trigger: $trigger"
SUBSCRIPTION_ID=$(gcloud eventarc triggers describe "$trigger" --location $REGION --format json | jq -r '.transport.pubsub.subscription')

if [ -z "$SUBSCRIPTION_ID" ]; then
    echo "Error: Could not retrieve subscription ID for trigger: $trigger"
    continue # Skip to the next trigger
fi
gcloud pubsub subscriptions update "$SUBSCRIPTION_ID" --ack-deadline=600
echo "Ack deadline updated for subscription: $SUBSCRIPTION_ID"
done
