Cloud Credentials Tabs

Cloud Credentials tabs display cloud provider credentials in your lab interface, giving users easy access to AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure credentials. This tab type consolidates credentials from multiple cloud provider resources into a single, convenient view.

Use Cloud Credentials tabs when your lab includes cloud provider resources and you want to provide users with a dedicated panel showing their access credentials.

To create a Cloud Credentials tab:

  1. Navigate to the Tabs section in your lab editor
  2. Click Add Tab and select Cloud Credentials from the dropdown
  3. Add one or more provider blocks to specify which credentials to display
