Overview

The Cloud Credentials Management interface provides a centralized location to view and manage all cloud provider credentials. These credentials are automatically listed when a cluster is provisioned. This interface gives you visibility into all credentials, allows you to see which clusters are using them, and provides actions to update or delete them as needed. How to access your cloud credentials

​
Viewing Credentials and Their Usage

Each cloud credential is displayed with details such as:
  • Credential name
  • Cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure, Scaleway)
  • Public access key or ARN role
  • Associated clusters
Next to each credential, you’ll find a View Associated Clusters button. Clicking it opens a list of all clusters that are currently using the credential, helping you assess the impact before making changes.

​
Editing a Credential

1

Click Edit Button

Locate the credential you want to modify and click the Edit button
2

Update Credential Properties

Modify key properties such as:
  • Access keys
  • Secret keys
  • Configuration settings
3

Save Changes

Click Save to apply the changes
Changes are saved and applied to the system immediately. Updated credentials will be used during the next deployment of each associated cluster.

​
Deleting a Credential

1

Check Associated Clusters

Click View Associated Clusters to see which clusters use this credential
2

Remove Associations

If the credential is linked to clusters, remove the association from those clusters first
3

Delete Credential

Once no clusters are associated, click the Delete button
If a credential is still linked to one or more clusters, deletion won’t be possible. You must first remove its association from those clusters.

​
Best Practices

Always check associated clusters by clicking the View Associated Clusters button before editing or deleting credentials. This helps prevent disruptions during future deployments.
Assign clear, descriptive names to credentials for easier identification. Examples:
  • aws-prod-us-east-1
  • gcp-staging-europe
  • azure-dev-westus
Periodically rotate cloud credentials for security:
  1. Create new credentials in your cloud provider
  2. Edit the credential in Qovery with new values
  3. Deploy clusters to apply new credentials
  4. Delete old credentials from your cloud provider
Regularly review and delete unused credentials to maintain a secure environment and reduce clutter.
For AWS, prefer IAM roles over access keys for better security:
  • More secure (no long-lived credentials)
  • Easier to manage and rotate
  • Better audit trail in CloudTrail
