Select the Purpose of the Platform Secret (Cloud Identity)

< General Details

warning

Please note that when using static credentials it is less secure and we recommend that you only use it when Wayfinder is installed off-cloud in non-production environments.

Also see how to authenticate using Wayfinder's identity rather than using static credentials:

• AWS
• Azure
• GCP

Authorise Wayfinder to access your cloud using static credentials. Wayfinder supports the following static credentials:

• AWS: AWS IAM user key
• Azure: Azure AD Client Secret
• GCP: GCP Service Account Key
