Cloudant IAM

Description

General

  • Documentation: https://cloud.ibm.com/apidocs/cloudant
  • Summary: Cloudant is an IBM cloud-based managed service, offering a document-oriented and distributed database. The service can be accessed via API calls using IAM (Identity and Access Management) authentication. This method involves using an apikey for authentication, which is tied to an IAM-enabled service ID or user. IAM authentication provides fine-grained access control and is the recommended method for securing Cloudant resources. For more details, refer to the IAM authentication guide.

Revoke the secret

IAM API keys can be revoked at any time through the IBM Cloud IAM dashboard. Navigate to the Service IDs or API Keys section, locate the key associated with Cloudant, and delete or disable it.
