Credentials

The Torque Credentials store allows your CloudFormation and Terraform grains to securely access your cloud authentication details from a single location. Credentials are similar to Parameters, but unlike parameters which are single-value parameters, credentials are classes that contain multiple parameters. Torque credentials are supported on AWS and Azure.

To add a credential:

1. Go to Administration > Credentials.
2. Click Add Credentials.

   

3. Give the credential a name and optionally a description.
4. Select the cloud provider (AWS / Azure).
5. Enter the provider's authentication details.
   • For an AWS Role Arn credential type, make sure you have a Role Arn that allows Torque access.
6. Click Apply.
7. Reference the credential in the grain's authentication section.
