# stackit Provider
|
||||
|
||||
The STACKIT provider is the official Terraform provider to integrate all the resources developed by STACKIT.
|
||||
|
||||
# Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, only the *token flow* is supported. The Terraform provider will first try to find a token in the `STACKIT_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN` env var. If not present, it will check the credentials file located in the path defined by the `STACKIT_CREDENTIALS_PATH` env var, if specified, or in `$HOME/.stackit/credentials.json` as a fallback. If the token is found, all the requests are authenticated using that token.

The STACKIT provider is the official Terraform provider to integrate all the resources developed by STACKIT.
|
||||
|
||||
## Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
Before you can start using the client, you will need to create a STACKIT Service Account in your project and assign it the appropriate permissions (i.e. `project.owner`).
|
||||
|
||||
After the service account has been created, you can authenticate to the client using the Token flow.
|
||||
|
||||
### Token flow
|
||||
There are multiple ways to provide the token to the Terraform provider:
|
||||
- Pass it to the provider directly:
|
||||
```
|
||||
provider "stackit" {
|
||||
service_account_token = "[TOKEN]"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Set it in an environment variable:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
export STACKIT_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN="[TOKEN]"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Create a file `~/.stackit/credentials.json` with the content:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"STACKIT_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN": "[TOKEN]"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
> To read from another location, either pass the file path to the provider using the variable `credentials_path`, or set the environment variable `STACKIT_CREDENTIALS_PATH` as the file path.
