Terraform Provider Update: OpenID Connect Provider Configuration

Bringing together two of our favorite topics (secure by default and automation), you can now configure OpenID Connect providers through Cloudsmith's Terraform Provider. 🎉

Key highlights:

  • OpenID Connect Provider Integration: With this update, Cloudsmith’s Terraform Provider now supports the creation and configuration (Update, Remove) of OpenID Connect providers, empowering users to streamline authentication and authorization processes within their infrastructure setups.
  • Enhanced security 🛡️: Ensure secure access to your resources by leveraging OIDC for authentication. OIDC tokens are a more secure way to handle authentication than long-lived credentials, and they remove the need to store your credentials in your CI/CD platform.
  • Simplified workflows: Say goodbye to manual setup and configuration steps. Provisioning and managing OIDC providers becomes a breeze with these changes.

How to get started:

  1. Update Terraform Provider: Make sure you're using the latest version of Cloudsmith’s Terraform Provider to access the new OIDC provider capabilities. You can download the latest release from our official repository.
  2. Configure OIDC Providers: Define OIDC provider configurations in your Terraform code using the provided resources and parameters. Refer to our documentation for detailed guidance on setting up and customizing OIDC providers.
  3. Apply Changes: Once you've configured your OIDC providers, apply the changes using Terraform. Terraform will handle the provisioning and configuration tasks, ensuring consistency and reliability across your infrastructure.
