I have created a IAM (identity and access management) service ID on IBM Cloud. Thereafter, I granted Administrator privilege for IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service to that service ID.
Now, how do I create a cluster using that service ID? I cannot log in to IBM Cloud with that id. What are the proper steps?
It can be done by following this flow:
1. Create an API key for that service ID:
ibmcloud iam service-api-key-create KeyName ServiceId-identifier \
-d "an optional description" --file save-Api-key2this-fileUsing that API key, obtain an IAM token for that service ID.
curl -k -X POST --header "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
--header "Accept: application/json" \
--data-urlencode "grant_type=urn:ibm:params:oauth:grant-type:apikey" \
--data-urlencode "apikey=APIKEY-FROM-STEP-1"\
https://iam.bluemix.net/identity/tokenUse the REST API for Kubernetes service to create the cluster. Provide the token from step 2 for authorization:
curl -X POST --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'X-Region: eu-de' --header 'Authorization: TOKEN-FROM-STEP2' -d '{ \
