Linode Provider: Installation & Configuration

Linode v4.36.0 published on Thursday, Mar 27, 2025 by Pulumi

The Pulumi Linode provider uses the Linode SDK to manage and provision resources.

Installation

The Linode provider is available as a package in all Pulumi languages:

Configuring Credentials

Pulumi relies on the Linode SDK to authenticate requests from your computer to Linode. Your credentials are never sent to pulumi.com. The Pulumi Linode Provider needs to be configured with Linode credentials before it can be used to create resources.

Once the credentials are obtained, there are two ways to communicate your authorization tokens to Pulumi:

  1. Set the environment variable LINODE_TOKEN:

    $ export LINODE_TOKEN=XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
    
    Copy
  2. Set them using configuration, if you prefer that they be stored alongside your Pulumi stack for easy multi-user access:

    $ pulumi config set linode:token XXXXXXXXXXXXXX --secret
    
    Copy

Remember to pass --secret when setting token so that it is properly encrypted.
