Linode Provider: Installation & Configuration
I want to use the Pulumi Linode package (linode) in my project.
## Provider details
- Package: linode
- Version: v5.12.0
- Publisher: Pulumi
- Source: pulumi
- Repository: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-linode
## Documentation
The Pulumi Cloud Registry API serves canonical, up-to-date docs for this package — including private packages and every published version. Send the "Accept: text/markdown" header for clean readable content, or "application/json" for structured data.
Start at the navigation tree, which cross-links to the readme, installation guide, and per-resource docs URL template:
- https://api.pulumi.com/api/registry/packages/pulumi/pulumi/linode/versions/latest/nav
Returns a summary by default. The full tree can be hundreds of kB for large providers, so prefer targeted search: append "?q=<query>&depth=full" to filter by resource/function title or token (for example "?q=bucket&depth=full"). Only request the full nav without a query if you actually need to enumerate every resource.
Other endpoints:
- Overview and getting started: https://api.pulumi.com/api/registry/packages/pulumi/pulumi/linode/versions/latest/readme
- Installation and configuration: https://api.pulumi.com/api/registry/packages/pulumi/pulumi/linode/versions/latest/installation
- Per-resource/function docs: https://api.pulumi.com/api/registry/packages/pulumi/pulumi/linode/versions/latest/docs/{token}?lang={lang}
Replace {token} with the percent-encoded token from the nav response (for example aws:s3/bucket:Bucket).
Replace {lang} with typescript, python, go, csharp, java, or yaml.
Fetch the installation endpoint above for the correct setup steps — install instructions vary between native providers, bridged Terraform providers, and component packages.
Help me get started using this provider. Show me a complete Pulumi program that provisions a common resource, including all necessary configuration and imports.

The Pulumi Linode provider uses the Linode SDK to manage and provision resources.
Installation
The Linode provider is available as a package in all Pulumi languages:
- JavaScript/TypeScript:
@pulumi/linode - Python:
pulumi-linode - Go:
github.com/pulumi/pulumi-linode/sdk/v3/go/linode - .NET:
Pulumi.Linode - Java:
com.pulumi/linode
Configuring Credentials
Pulumi relies on the Linode SDK to authenticate requests from your computer to Linode. Your credentials are never sent to pulumi.com. The Pulumi Linode Provider needs to be configured with Linode 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:
Set the environment variable
LINODE_TOKEN:$ export LINODE_TOKEN=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXSet them using configuration, if you prefer that they be stored alongside your Pulumi stack for easy multi-user access:
$ pulumi config set linode:token XXXXXXXXXXXXXX --secret
Remember to pass --secret when setting token so that it is properly encrypted.
