Unifi v0.2.0 published on Tuesday, Feb 17, 2026 by Pulumiverse
The unifi.Account resource manages RADIUS user accounts in the UniFi controller’s built-in RADIUS server.
This resource is used for:
- WPA2/WPA3-Enterprise wireless authentication
- 802.1X wired authentication
- MAC-based device authentication
- VLAN assignment through RADIUS attributes
Important Notes:
- For MAC-based authentication:
- Use the device’s MAC address as both username and password
- Convert MAC address to uppercase with no separators (e.g., ‘00:11:22:33:44:55’ becomes ‘001122334455’)
- VLAN Assignment:
- If no VLAN is specified in the profile, clients will use the network’s untagged VLAN
- VLAN assignment uses standard RADIUS tunnel attributes
Limitations:
- MAC-based authentication works only for wireless and wired clients
- L2TP remote access VPN is not supported with MAC authentication
- Accounts must be unique within a site

Account Resource Properties
To learn more about resource properties and how to use them, see Inputs and Outputs in the Architecture and Concepts docs.
Inputs
In Python, inputs that are objects can be passed either as argument classes or as dictionary literals.
The Account resource accepts the following input properties:
- Password string
- The password for this RADIUS account. For MAC-based authentication, this must match the username (the MAC address). For regular users, this should be a secure password following your organization's password policies.
- Name string
- The username for this RADIUS account. For regular users, this can be any unique identifier. For MAC-based authentication, this must be the device's MAC address in uppercase with no separators (e.g., '001122334455').
- Network
Id string - The ID of the network (VLAN) to assign to clients authenticating with this account. This is used in conjunction with the tunnel attributes to provide VLAN assignment via RADIUS.
