Prerequisites

This Policy Template uses Credentials for authenticating to datasources -- in order to apply this policy you must have a Credential registered in the system that is compatible with this policy. If there are no Credentials listed when you apply the policy, please contact your Flexera Org Admin and ask them to register a Credential that is compatible with this policy. The information below should be consulted when creating the credential(s).

  • [Turbonomic Credential] The policy requires basic Turbonomic authentication credentials, ensure your Turbonomic credentials meet the following OAuth 2.0 authentication criteria:
    • On the Turbonomic side:
      • Ensure OAuth 2.0 authentication is enabled for your Turbonomic instance by adding spec.oauth2.enabled: true to your custom resource (CR) file.
      • Specify a unique audience value (spec.properties.global.oauth2.audience) in the custom resource (CR) file. This policy template use default value of flexera for audience parameter, but you can customize it with any unique string value and use that value.
      • Utilize the Turbonomic API to create an OAuth 2.0 client, configuring it with role:OBSERVER and using client_secret_basic for clientAuthenticationMethods.
    • On the Flexera side:
      • Add Turbonomic credentials using the provided clientId and clientSecret.
      • Ensure the credential is tagged with provider=turbonomic and use Basic Auth for Credential Type.

The Provider-Specific Credentials page in the docs has detailed instructions for setting up Credentials for the most common providers.
