Authentication

The Fastly provider offers an API key based method of providing credentials for authentication. The following methods are supported, in this order, and explained below:

• Static API key
• Environment variables

Static API Key

Static credentials can be provided by adding a api_key in-line in the Fastly provider block:

Usage:

provider "fastly" {
  api_key = "test"
}

resource "fastly_service_v1" "myservice" {
  # ...
}

You can create a credential on the Personal API Tokens page: https://manage.fastly.com/account/personal/tokens

Environment variables

You can provide your API key via FASTLY_API_KEY environment variable, representing your Fastly API key. When using this method, you may omit the Fastly provider block entirely:

resource "fastly_service_v1" "myservice" {
  # ...
}

Usage:

$ export FASTLY_API_KEY="afastlyapikey"
$ terraform plan
