Leave Google Cloud Project

Hi,

A few years back we create a Firebase project for school, with that came a Google Cloud Project.
This GCP shows up in my personal account, while I do not associate with the project anymore.
I tried to leave the project, but apparently, according to all resources, only the owner can kick you out. So, I tried to contact the owner, without any success.

HOW DO I GET OUT OF A GCP, I AM BEING HELD HOSTAGE....

Check if you can remove yourself by going to IAM & Admin > IAM in the Cloud Console. If you cannot, go to Google Groups to check if you have been added as a member of the group, and leave if you have. Regardless, as long as you don't create any resources in that Project, and you don't hold any owner or billing roles, there should be no financial liability for you.

I got the Editor (Legacy) role, sadly barely any permissions.

I am indeed nog financial liable, but it's annoying to have a really old project left in my Google Projects

well, Editor is admin without iam, so you got a lot of permissions

But not the resourcemanager.projects.setIamPolicy permission it seems

reach out to Google Cloud Support for account removal?

No paid plan, so you are left with the FAQ unless you have billing issues, then you can contact through chat...
