Add public cloud credentials for a tenant

To work with a public cloud region, each enterprise should have its own public cloud account for each cloud provider. All the users in the tenant will work with this same account. 

Before you begin:

1. Obtain credentials to access the cloud provider's API. For Abiquo's basic guides, see Obtain public cloud credentials.  Always check your provider documentation too.

To add public cloud credentials:

1. Go to Users → select and edit enterprise → Credentials → Public
2. Enter the Credentials as described here
   1. Select the Provider: Some providers may require different credentials for groups of regions

   2. Enter Access key ID: Identity to access the cloud provider API

      1. For Azure enter subscription-id#app-id#tenant-id

      2. For Google enter project_id#client_id#client_email#private_key_id

      3. For OCI enter format is tenancy#user#fingerprint

   3. Enter Secret access key

      1. For OCI enter the private key in PEM format.

   
   See GUI Edit enterprise Credentials
3. Click Add account. The platform will validate your credentials with the cloud provider and save them

4. Finish editing the enterprise and click Save

This will add a cloud provider account for a tenant enterprise with access to a public cloud region.
