What is a working example of provisioning the spanner service?

[drnic]

I tried the following:

svcat provision spanner-db -n sb-demo --class cloud-spanner --plan beta --wait

But it never exits. When I look at the events for the resource I see:

What is an example svcat provision command to provision spanner or other services?

I've guessed my way so far to:

svcat provision spanner-db -n sb-demo --class cloud-spanner --plan beta --params-json '{"displayName":"my-spanner","instanceId":"d3d3e4-18f4-4d53"}'

Current error is now Resource projects/knative-experiments/instances/d3d3e4-18f4-4d53 is missing IAM permission: spanner.instances.setIamPolicy

  Warning  ProvisionCallFailed  3s    service-catalog-controller-manager  Provision call failed: operation "projects/491089609225/operations/a15585a3-d356-11e8-b517-0a580a100221/1539922966831069154" failed: generic::invalid_argument: Operation "operation-1539922967227-5788d41716a79-f114bcbd-94794d36" failed with

I get the exact same error following this example https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes-engine-samples/tree/master/service-catalog/cloud-spanner#before-you-begin. I'm guessing I've missed enabling an API but not sure which one.

Please read through the information regarding service account usage while using the GCP Broker: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes-engine-samples/tree/master/service-catalog#application-service-account

And look through these instructions:
