Akamai: Installation & Configuration

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

Installation

The Akamai provider is available as a package in all Pulumi languages:

• JavaScript/TypeScript: @pulumi/akamai
• Python: pulumi-akamai
• Go: github.com/pulumi/pulumi-akamai/sdk/v2/go/akamai
• .NET: Pulumi.Akamai

Configuring Credentials

Pulumi relies on the Akamai SDK to authenticate requests from your computer to Akamai. Your credentials are never sent to pulumi.com. The Pulumi Akamai Provider needs to be configured with Akamai credentials before it can be used to create resources.

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

1. Create environment variables in the format:

   AKAMAI{_SECTION_NAME}_*

   For example, if you specify akamai:propertySection papi you would set the following ENV variables:

   AKAMAI_PAPI_HOST
AKAMAI_PAPI_ACCESS_TOKEN
AKAMAI_PAPI_CLIENT_TOKEN
AKAMAI_PAPI_CLIENT_SECRET

   If the section name is default, you can omit it, instead using:

   AKAMAI_HOST
AKAMAI_ACCESS_TOKEN
AKAMAI_CLIENT_TOKEN
AKAMAI_CLIENT_SECRET

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

   $ pulumi config set akamai:edgerc XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
   $ pulumi config set akamai:propertySection YYYYYYYYYYYYYY
   

A full set of configuration parameters is listed in the Akamai Provider README.
