PAB_ACCESS_STATE_UNSPECIFIED Not specified.
PAB_ACCESS_STATE_ALLOWED The PAB component allows the principal's access to the specified resource.
PAB_ACCESS_STATE_NOT_ALLOWED The PAB component doesn't allow the principal's access to the specified resource.
PAB_ACCESS_STATE_NOT_ENFORCED

The PAB component is not enforced on the principal, or the specified resource.

This state refers to 2 specific scenarios:

  • IAM doesn't enforce the specified permission at the PAB policy's enforcement version, so the PAB policy can't block access.
  • The binding doesn't apply to the principal, so the policy is not enforced.
PAB_ACCESS_STATE_UNKNOWN_INFO The sender of the request does not have access to the PAB component, or the relevant data to explain the PAB component.
