Auth0 Setup

The Pulumi Auth0 provider uses the Auth0 SDK to manage and provision resources.

Pulumi relies on the Auth0 SDK to authenticate requests from your computer to Auth0. Your credentials are never sent to pulumi.com.

The Pulumi Auth0 Provider needs to be configured with Auth0 credentials before it can be used to create resources.

Configuring Credentials

Once obtained, there are two ways to communicate your authorization tokens to Pulumi:

  1. Set the environment variables AUTH0_DOMAIN, AUTH0_CLIENT_ID and AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET:

    $ export AUTH0_DOMAIN=XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
$ export AUTH0_CLIENT_ID=YYYYYYYYYYYYYY
$ export AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET=ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

  2. Set them using configuration, if you prefer that they be stored alongside your Pulumi stack for easy multi-user access:

    $ pulumi config set auth0:domain XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
$ pulumi config set auth0:clientId YYYYYYYYYYYYYY --secret
$ pulumi config set auth0:clientSecret ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ --secret

Remember to pass --secret when setting auth0:clientId and auth0:clientSecret so that it is properly encrypted. A full set of configuration parameters can be found listed on the Project README.
