Follow the GCP onboarding wizard, and Cortex creates a custom authentication template to be executed in GCP.
Use the cloud onboarding wizard to integrate a Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environment with Cortex Cloud. The onboarding wizard requires minimal configuration to set up the integration. To complete the minimum configuration, define the scope of the GCP environment you are onboarding and specify the scan mode. Alternatively, configure the advanced settings for full control of the onboarding process.
Cortex Cloud generates a Terraform authentication template based on the configuration settings. The authentication template establishes trust with GCP. The authentication template also grants required permissions to Cortex Cloud. Execute the authentication template in GCP to complete the onboarding process. Executing the authentication template notifies Cortex Cloud of the execution details. Cortex Cloud then creates a new cloud instance.
