Machines authenticate as the app they belong to.
Machines authenticate as the app they belong to.
Identity proof
The token has to come from https://oidc.fly.io/acme, and its app_name claim has to match the workload you named. We compare that claim byte for byte, with no wildcards.
app_name is matched rather than sub, which on this platform does not name the workload in a form you can pin.
Every token also has to name your workspace as its audience. Ask for this audience and no other. A token requested for two audiences fails every exchange.
Console fields
| Field | Example | Advanced | What it pins |
|---|---|---|---|
| Organization slug | acme | no | |
| App name | acme-api | no | Every machine of this app matches. |
The console also asks which project and environment this identity reaches and which role it gets, with the credential lifetime behind Advanced.
Trust
Built from the example answers above:
| What | Value |
|---|---|
| Issuer | https://oidc.fly.io/acme |
| Claim compared | app_name |
| Subject | acme-api |
| Identity name | fly-acme-api |
We name the identity for you, so the form never asks for one.
Console snippet
T=$(curl -sS --unix-socket /.fly/api \
-X POST http://localhost/v1/tokens/oidc \
--data '{"aud":"YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID"}')
C=$(T="$T" jq -n '{token:env.T}' | curl -sS "https://penv.cloud/api/v1/auth/oidc" \
-H 'content-type: application/json' --data-binary @- | jq -r .credential)
PENV_TOKEN="$C" penv pullThe snippet finishes with penv pull, which writes a file. We recommend penv run for a process; penv pull is for a host that needs a file on disk. Connect your CI has the wrapped step.
