# Managing registry passwords {% note warning %} Yandex IoT Core is no longer available to new users. Current users can create resources until November 1, 2026. Afterwards, the service will go read-only and cease to operate on December 1, 2026. For more information on the timing and procedure, see [Service shutdown](../../sunset.md). {% endnote %} For devices and registries to begin exchanging data and commands, you need to [log in](../../concepts/authorization.md). This section describes how to manage registry passwords for the appropriate authorization method. {% note info %} When using an X.509 certificate along with a password, the password has higher priority. {% endnote %} * [Adding a password](#create-or-add) * [Viewing a password list](#list) * [Deleting a password](#delete) ## Adding a password to a registry {#create-or-add} You can add a password to an already created registry or set it when creating a registry using the `--password` parameter. {% note info %} You can also set a password from the input stream. To do this, use the `--read-password` flag instead of the `--password` parameter. {% endnote %} ### Adding a password to an existing registry {#add} {% list tabs group=instructions %} - Management console {#console} To add a password to an existing registry: 1. In the [management console](https://console.yandex.cloud), select the folder where you want to ad a password for an existing registry. 1. Navigate to **IoT Core**. 1. Select the required registry from the list. 1. Under **Passwords**, click **Add password**. 1. In the **Password** field, enter the password you will be using to access your registry.
You can use a [password generator](https://passwordsgenerator.net/) to create a password.
Make sure you save the password, as you will need it later. 1. Click **Add**. - CLI {#cli} If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, [install and initialize it](../../../cli/quickstart.md#install). To add a password: 1. Get a list of registries in the folder: ``` yc iot registry list ``` Result: ``` +----------------------+-------------------+ | ID | NAME | +----------------------+-------------------+ | arenou2oj4ct******** | my-registry | +----------------------+-------------------+ ``` 1. Add a password to the registry: ``` yc iot registry password add --registry-name my-registry --password Passw0rdForRegistry ``` Result: ``` registry_id: arenou2oj4ct******** id: areuu2hgsv6k******** created_at: "2019-12-16T15:32:46.655139Z" ``` - Terraform {#tf} With [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/), you can quickly create a cloud infrastructure in Yandex Cloud and manage it using configuration files. These files store the infrastructure description written in HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed. Terraform is distributed under the [Business Source License](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/blob/main/LICENSE). The [Yandex Cloud provider for Terraform](https://github.com/yandex-cloud/terraform-provider-yandex) is distributed under the [MPL-2.0](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/2.0/) license. For more information about the provider resources, see the relevant documentation on the [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/yandex/index.html) website or [its mirror](../../../terraform/index.md). If you do not have Terraform yet, [install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider](../../../tutorials/infrastructure-management/terraform-quickstart.md#install-terraform). To manage infrastructure using Terraform under a service account or user accounts (a Yandex account, a federated account, or a local user), [authenticate](../../../terraform/authentication.md) using the appropriate method. To add a password to a registry created using Terraform: 1. In the configuration file, specify the properties of the resources you want to create: * `yandex_iot_core_registry`: Registry parameters: * `name`: Registry name. * `description`: Registry description. * `passwords`: List of registry passwords for authentication with a [username and password](../../concepts/authorization.md#log-pass). Here is an example of the resource structure in the configuration file: ```hcl resource "yandex_iot_core_registry" "my_registry" { name = "test-registry" description = "test registry for terraform provider documentation" ... passwords = [ "", "" ] ... } ``` For more information about `yandex_iot_core_registry` properties, see [this Terraform provider guide](../../../terraform/resources/iot_core_registry.md). 1. In the command line, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file. 1. Make sure the configuration file is correct using this command: ```bash terraform validate ``` If the configuration is valid, you will get this message: ```bash Success! The configuration is valid. ``` 1. Run this command: ```bash terraform plan ``` You will see a list of resources and their properties. No changes will be made at this step. Terraform will show any errors in the configuration. 1. Apply the configuration changes: ```bash terraform apply ``` 1. Type `yes` and press **Enter** to confirm the changes. You can verify registry passwords using the [management console](https://console.yandex.cloud) or this [CLI](../../../cli/quickstart.md) command: ```bash yc iot registry password list --registry-name ``` - API {#api} To add a password to a registry, use the [addPassword](../../api-ref/Registry/addPassword.md) REST API method for the [Registry](../../api-ref/Registry/index.md) resource or the [RegistryService/AddPassword](../../api-ref/grpc/Registry/addPassword.md) gRPC API call. {% endlist %} ### Setting a password for a registry when creating it {#create} {% list tabs group=instructions %} - Management console {#console} For information about how to set a password for a registry when creating it, see [Creating a registry](../registry/registry-create.md). - CLI {#cli} If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, [install and initialize it](../../../cli/quickstart.md#install). The folder used by default is the one specified when [creating](../../../cli/operations/profile/profile-create.md) the CLI profile. To change the default folder, use the `yc config set folder-id ` command. You can also specify a different folder for any command using `--folder-name` or `--folder-id`. If you access a resource by its name, the search will be limited to the default folder. If you access a resource by its ID, the search will be global, i.e., through all folders based on access permissions. Create a registry with a password: ``` yc iot registry create --name registry-with-pass --password Passw0rdForDevice ``` Result: ``` done (1s) id: areg96c8loru******** folder_id: b1g88tflru0e******** created_at: "2019-12-16T15:34:25.563Z" name: registry-with-pass status: ACTIVE log_group_id: ckghhil3b5o9******** ``` - Terraform {#tf} For information about how to set a password for a registry when creating it, see [Creating a registry](../registry/registry-create.md). - API {#api} To set a password for a registry when creating it, use the [create](../../api-ref/Registry/create.md) REST API method for the [Registry](../../api-ref/Registry/index.md) resource or the [RegistryService/Create](../../api-ref/grpc/Registry/create.md) gRPC API call. {% endlist %} ## Getting a list of registry passwords {#list} {% list tabs group=instructions %} - Management console {#console} To view the list of registry passwords: 1.

To delete the password of a registry created using Terraform: 1. Open the Terraform configuration file and delete the value of the password in the `passwords` section, in the segment with the registry description. To delete all passwords, delete the entire `passwords` section.
