Hi and invis, listen, what we're going to do is call it security, and you may save his lesson twice,
but that's because it's such an important part of this course.
If we go back to our first example, where our first resource is that I provide it.
We've added the access key and the secret key and a tearful and best practices is that this is a big
no no, you shouldn't do this.
So maybe wondering what all the alternatives.
So there are two ways we can go about it.
TerraForm can pick up environment variables.
Swane where we can do is set W.S. underscore access, underscore key unschool ideas equal to this value.
And same for the secret key.
The identical.
So this will be secrets.
And if you're wondering how we would do that on Linux, Mac, would we export and we'd set the value
Windows, it will be set X.
There's another way we can do it.
And this is gonna be the approach I'm going to use, which is would be a W.
S c a lie.
And what it does is it creates a hidden folder inside your home directory.
And it stores your credentials in their version of way, which we are going to cover later, because
as part of the exam, Hashi Corp wanted to learn about other products.
And the other one you're gonna touch on is Voelz.
You can use the Volt provider to pull in any credentials and secrets you might need.
Let's focus on setting up the ATO at UCLA.
I've really got installed.
In case you're wondering.
Have a look.
Likely A.W. s come online interface is available for all platforms Windows, Linux and Mac and will
include a link to this page.
Once you've got to install the command, you want to run as eight of us configure.
This was a previous CEO is using this case.
I'm now going to paste him on.
You will.
I was going to paste in my secret key defo region.
Now I'm based in London, Somerset E. West to default format.
We want Jason so we can go ahead and hit enter.
And there we go.
That is now set up.
So now what I can do is go back to my visual studio.
Code.
Get rid of this.
Save it.
Now, go back to my integrated terminal and we could check the works by running TerraForm Plan.
This is a really key concept for the exam.
That is how to securely store your keys.
So there's three ways you can do it.
We can set it as VRM variables.
We can use a WSC allai as another method.
We could also use revolt provider.
That wraps up this lesson.
I look forward to seeing you in the next one.
