Create an integration to manage access to a Redis Cloud instance
Redis Cloud is a fully managed, in-memory data store that functions as a database, cache, and message broker. With features such as data persistence, replication, and clustering, Redis Cloud provides high availability and fault tolerance, seamless scalability, and automated maintenance for optimal performance and reliability.
Through this integration, Apono helps you securely manage access to your Redis Cloud instance.

You can also use the steps below to integrate with Apono using Terraform.
In step 11, instead of clicking Confirm, follow the Are you integrating with Apono using Terraform? guidance.
Follow these steps to complete the integration:
On the Catalog tab, click Redis Cloud (Redislabs). The Connect Integration page appears.
Under Discovery, select one or multiple resource types for Apono to discover in all instances of the environment.
Click Next. The Apono connector section expands.
From the dropdown menu, select a connector. Choosing a connector links Apono to all the services available on the account where the connector is located.
If the desired connector is not listed, click + Add new connector and follow the instructions for creating a connector (AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes).
Click Next. The Integration Config section expands.
Define the Integration Config settings.
Click Next. The Secret Store section expands.
Click Next. The Get more with Apono section expands.
Define the Get more with Apono settings.
Click Confirm.
Now that you have completed this integration, you can create access flows that grant permission to your Redis Cloud instance.

Redis Cloud API
REST API for managing Redis Cloud programmatically Enable the Redis Cloud API for your account.
Redis API credentials
Credentials used to authenticate a Redis REST API request:
These credentials are required for creating the Apono Secret in the next row.
Apono Secret
Value generated with the credentials of the user you create Create your secret based on your Redis Cloud API account key and user key:
"api_key": <ACCOUNT_KEY>
"secret_key": <USER_KEY>
Apono does not store credentials. The Apono Connector uses the secret to communicate with services in your environment and separate the Apono web app from the environment for maximal security.

Integration Name
Unique, alphanumeric, user-friendly name used to identify this integration when constructing an access flow
Custom Access Details
(Optional) Instructions explaining how to access this integration's resources Upon accessing an integration, a message with these instructions will be displayed to end users in the User Portal. The message may include up to 400 characters. To view the message as it appears to end users, click Preview.
Integration Owner
(Optional) Fallback approver if no resource owner is found Follow these steps to define one or several integration owners:
From the Attribute dropdown menu, select User or Group under the relevant identity provider (IdP) platform.
From the Value dropdown menu, select one or multiple users or groups.
NOTE: When Resource Owner is defined, an Integration Owner must be defined.
Resource Owner
(Optional) Group or role responsible for managing access approvals or rejections for the resource Follow these steps to define one or several resource owners:
Enter a Key name. This value is the name of the tag created in your cloud environment.
From the Attribute dropdown menu, select an attribute under the IdP platform to which the key name is associated. Apono will use the value associated with the key (tag) to identify the resource owner. When you update the membership of the group or role in your IdP platform, this change is also reflected in Apono.
NOTE: When this setting is defined, an Integration Owner must also be defined.
