# Google Security Command Center Settings API Client for Java
Java idiomatic client for [Security Command Center Settings API][product-docs].
[![Maven][maven-version-image]][maven-version-link]
![Stability][stability-image]
- [Product Documentation][product-docs]
- [Client Library Documentation][javadocs]
> Note: This client is a work-in-progress, and may occasionally
> make backwards-incompatible changes.
## Quickstart
If you are using Maven with [BOM][libraries-bom], add this to your pom.xml file:
```xml
com.google.cloud
libraries-bom
26.11.0
pom
import
com.google.cloud
google-cloud-securitycenter-settings
```
If you are using Maven without the BOM, add this to your dependencies:
```xml
com.google.cloud
google-cloud-securitycenter-settings
0.20.0
```
If you are using Gradle without BOM, add this to your dependencies:
```Groovy
implementation 'com.google.cloud:google-cloud-securitycenter-settings:0.20.0'
```
If you are using SBT, add this to your dependencies:
```Scala
libraryDependencies += "com.google.cloud" % "google-cloud-securitycenter-settings" % "0.20.0"
```
## Authentication
See the [Authentication][authentication] section in the base directory's README.
## Authorization
The client application making API calls must be granted [authorization scopes][auth-scopes] required for the desired Security Command Center Settings API APIs, and the authenticated principal must have the [IAM role(s)][predefined-iam-roles] required to access GCP resources using the Security Command Center Settings API API calls.
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
You will need a [Google Cloud Platform Console][developer-console] project with the Security Command Center Settings API [API enabled][enable-api].
[Follow these instructions][create-project] to get your project set up. You will also need to set up the local development environment by
[installing the Google Cloud Command Line Interface][cloud-cli] and running the following commands in command line:
`gcloud auth login` and `gcloud config set project [YOUR PROJECT ID]`.
### Installation and setup
You'll need to obtain the `google-cloud-securitycenter-settings` library. See the [Quickstart](#quickstart) section
to add `google-cloud-securitycenter-settings` as a dependency in your code.
## About Security Command Center Settings API
[Security Command Center Settings API][product-docs] is the canonical security and data risk database for Google Cloud. Security Command Center enables you to understand your security and data attack surface by providing asset inventory, discovery, search, and management.
See the [Security Command Center Settings API client library docs][javadocs] to learn how to
use this Security Command Center Settings API Client Library.
## Troubleshooting
To get help, follow the instructions in the [shared Troubleshooting document][troubleshooting].
## Transport
Security Command Center Settings API uses gRPC for the transport layer.
## Supported Java Versions
Java 8 or above is required for using this client.
Google's Java client libraries,
[Google Cloud Client Libraries][cloudlibs]
and
[Google Cloud API Libraries][apilibs],
follow the
[Oracle Java SE support roadmap][oracle]
(see the Oracle Java SE Product Releases section).
### For new development
In general, new feature development occurs with support for the lowest Java
LTS version covered by Oracle's Premier Support (which typically lasts 5 years
from initial General Availability). If the minimum required JVM for a given
library is changed, it is accompanied by a [semver][semver] major release.
Java 11 and (in September 2021) Java 17 are the best choices for new
development.
### Keeping production systems current
Google tests its client libraries with all current LTS versions covered by
Oracle's Extended Support (which typically lasts 8 years from initial
General Availability).
#### Legacy support
Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Java runtimes with long
term stable libraries that don't receive feature updates on a best efforts basis
as it may not be possible to backport all patches.
Google provides updates on a best efforts basis to apps that continue to use
Java 7, though apps might need to upgrade to current versions of the library
that supports their JVM.
#### Where to find specific information
The latest versions and the supported Java versions are identified on
the individual GitHub repository `github.com/GoogleAPIs/java-SERVICENAME`
and on [google-cloud-java][g-c-j].
