## About

The [Dataproc
Clusters](https://cloud.google.com/dataproc/docs/concepts/overview) source
allows Toolbox to interact with Dataproc Clusters hosted on Google Cloud.

## Available Tools

{{< list-tools >}}

## Requirements

### IAM Permissions

Dataproc uses [Identity and Access Management
(IAM)](https://cloud.google.com/dataproc/docs/concepts/iam/iam) to control user
and group access to Dataproc resources.

Toolbox will use your [Application Default Credentials
(ADC)](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication#adc) to authorize and
authenticate when interacting with Dataproc. When using this method, you need to
ensure the IAM identity associated with your ADC has the correct
[permissions](https://cloud.google.com/dataproc/docs/concepts/iam/iam)
for the actions you intend to perform. Common roles include
`roles/dataproc.editor` or `roles/dataproc.viewer`. Follow this
[guide](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/provide-credentials-adc) to
set up your ADC.

## Example

```yaml
kind: source
name: my-dataproc-source
type: dataproc
project: my-project
region: us-central1
```
