How to generate credentials

To install Edge Orchestrator Agent and start orchestrating, you must create your credentials before. You can do so through:

Via Azion Console

Access Azion Console > Account menu.
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: 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).

Via API

Run the following POST request in your terminal:

curl --location 'https://api.azionapi.net/credentials/' \
--header 'Accept: application/json; version=3' \
--header 'Authorization: Token [TOKEN VALUE]' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
  "description": "credential to use with Orchestrator",
  "name": "new credential",
  "status": true
}'

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

Property	Description	Required
`name`	Name of the credential you want to create	Yes
`description`	Open field to describe your credential with information such as for what purpose it was created	No
`status`	Status of your credential	No

Now you can install Edge Orchestrator agent on your node and start orchestrating your services.
