Set up credentials for the keystone client You can configure the python-keystoneclient with admin credentials with either an authentication token or a user name and password. To configure the keystone client with an authentication token Export your keystone endpoint to the OS_SERVICE_ENDPOINT environment variable: $ export OS_SERVICE_ENDPOINT="<keystoneEndpoint>" Export the administrator service token to the OS_SERVICE_TOKEN environment variable: $ export OS_SERVICE_TOKEN="<serviceToken>" Alternatively, you can specify these parameters on any keystone client command: --os-endpoint SERVICE_ENDPOINT. An endpoint to use instead of the one in the service catalog. Defaults to env[OS_SERVICE_ENDPOINT]. --os-token SERVICE_TOKEN. An existing token to use instead of the one generated by authentication. Defaults to env[OS_SERVICE_TOKEN]. To configure the keystone client with a user name and password Export the administrator user name to the OS_USERNAME environment variable: $ export OS_USERNAME="<adminUserName>" Export the administrator password to the OS_PASSWORD environment variable: $ export OS_PASSWORD="<adminPassword>" Export the tenant name to the OS_TENANT_NAME environment variable: $ export OS_TENANT_NAME="<tenantName>" Export the URL of the keystone auth server, for example http://localhost:5000/v2.0', to the OS_AUTH_URL environment variable: $ export OS_AUTH_URL="<authServerURL>" Alternatively, you can specify these parameters on any keystone client command: --os-username OS_USERNAME. Name used for authentication with the Identity Service. Defaults to env[OS_USERNAME]. --os-password OS_PASSWORD. Password used for authentication with the Identity Service. Defaults to env[OS_PASSWORD]. --os-tenant_name OS_TENANT_NAME. Tenant for which to request authentication. Defaults to env[OS_TENANT_NAME]. --os-auth_url OS_AUTH_URL.
