How can I get my clouds.yaml file from OpenStack Horizons?

Question

OpenStack can export a configuration file called clouds.yaml. How do I export this file from the Horizon's interface?

Answer 1

Follow these steps,

1. Log into Horizons
2. On the left bar click Identity.
3. Under Identity, click Application Credentials.
4. Click the + Create Application Credentials button at the top
5. You must at least give a name.
6. Click "Create Application Credential" at the bottom of the page.
7. Click Download clouds.yaml

And you'll typically want to put this file either,

• $HOME/.config/openstack/clouds.yaml
• /etc/openstack/clouds.yaml
