info
  • Audience: Cloudaware administrators and STACKIT administrators
  • Outcome: A STACKIT service account is configured for integration with Cloudaware

Prerequisites​

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • Access to a Cloudaware account.
  • A user with access to the Admin Console and permissions to manage cloud accounts, organizations, and integrations (Cloudaware Administrator).
  • A STACKIT service account with the Reader role.
  • Permission to upload certificates to that service account in STACKIT.
  • The STACKIT service account credentials in JSON format.

Connect a STACKIT Service Account​

  1. In Cloudaware, go to Admin Console.
  2. Find Stackit and click SHOW ACCOUNTS.
  3. On the Certificates tab, click GENERATE CERTIFICATE.
  4. Enter a certificate name and set the expiration period. Click GENERATE CERTIFICATE, then click DOWNLOAD CERTIFICATE to download the public portion of the certificate.
  5. In STACKIT, upload the certificate to the service account used for the integration.
  6. Return to Cloudaware. On the Service Accounts tab, click + ADD SERVICE ACCOUNT.
  7. Enter a descriptive name for the integration.
  8. In Certificate, select the certificate generated in step 4.
  9. Paste the STACKIT service account credentials in JSON format into Credentials, or click LOAD CREDENTIALS FROM FILE and select the JSON file.
  10. Click Check. Once the validation has passed, click Save.
  11. Confirm that the integration status indicator is green.
note

The JSON credentials must belong to the STACKIT service account where you uploaded the public portion of the certificate. Select the matching certificate in Cloudaware to complete the authentication configuration.

Troubleshooting​

If you encounter an authentication issue:

  • Check that the service account credentials are valid JSON and belong to the intended STACKIT service account.
  • Confirm that the certificate was uploaded to that same service account in STACKIT.
  • Verify that the certificate selected in Cloudaware matches the certificate uploaded to STACKIT.

If the issue persists, contact Cloudaware Support at support@cloudaware.com with the integration name and a description of the issue.
