Confluent Cloud (Deprecated): Installation & Configuration

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

Installation

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

• JavaScript/TypeScript: @pulumi/confluent
• Python: pulumi-confluent
• Go: github.com/pulumi/pulumi-confluent/sdk/go/confluent
• .NET: Pulumi.Confluent

Configuring Credentials

Pulumi relies on the Confluent Cloud SDK to authenticate requests from your computer to Confluent Cloud. Your credentials are never sent to pulumi.com. The Pulumi Confluent Cloud Provider needs to be configured with Confluent Cloud 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. Set the environment variables CONFLUENT_CLOUD_USERNAME and CONFLUENT_CLOUD_PASSWORD:

   $ export CONFLUENT_CLOUD_USERNAME=XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
   $ export CONFLUENT_CLOUD_PASSWORD=YYYYYYYYYYYYYY
   

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

   $ pulumi config set confluent:username XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
   $ pulumi config set confluent:password YYYYYYYYYYYYYY --secret
   

Remember to pass --secret when setting confluent:password so that it is properly encrypted. The complete list of configuration parameters is in the Confluent Cloud provider README.
