API Credentials¶
Cloud API credentials authenticate requests to the Verda API. The same Client ID and Client Secret pair works across the CLI, Terraform and OpenTofu providers, and third-party integrations such as dstack and SkyPilot.
Create API credentials¶
- Log in to the Verda Console.
- Open the Credentials page from the sidebar.
- Under Cloud API credentials, click + Create.
- Copy the Client ID and Client Secret - the secret is shown only once.
Warning
Store the Client Secret somewhere safe. The Console does not display it again after creation - if you lose it, you'll need to create a new credential pair.
Credential lifecycle¶
Cloud API credentials are tied to the team member who created them, not to a project. If a team member is removed from a project or leaves it, all Cloud API credentials they created are deleted for security purposes. See Team Projects.
