How to generate orchestrator credentials
To install Edge Orchestrator Agent and start orchestrating, you must create your credentials before. You can do so through:
- Access Azion Console.
- On the top-right corner, open the Account menu and select Credentials.
- Click the + Credential button.
- Give your credential an easy-to-remember name.
- As an optional step, describe how or by whom the credential will be used in the Description field.
- Example:
Credential used for Edge Nodes registration
.
- Click the Save button.
A token will be generated after the credential is saved.
When clicking on the created credential on the Credentials page, you can:
- Copy the generated token.
- Delete your credential.
- Edit your credential. You can update your credential’s name, description, and status (active/inactive).
- Access Real-Time Manager (RTM).
- On the top-right corner, open the Account menu and select Credentials.
- Click the Add Credential button.
- Give your credential an easy-to-remember name.
- Describe how or by whom the credential will be used in the Description field in Settings.
- Example:

Replace [TOKEN VALUE]
with your personal token and inform the following properties in the request body:
