VCF Automation Orchestrator 8 User Guide: Authentication

The Everpure Plugin for VCF Automation Orchestrator provides a few things:

1. Default workflows for running common tasks
2. Discrete actions for assembling common functions together to create workflows
3. JavaScript libraries to create very customized workflows
4. REST API libraries to make specific REST calls that are not included in the JavaScript libraries
5. Integrated authentication
6. Integrated and synchronized inventory of Pure Storage environments

   To perform most tasks in the plugin, authentication needs to be configured first. The Everpure Plugin supports authentication via the following targets:

7. Pure1
8. FlashArray (or Cloud Block Store--authentication is the same)
9. FlashBlade

   If you have many FlashArrays, FlashBlades, or Cloud Block Store instances, they can be be registered in an automated fashion via a Pure1 connection. For details on that process refer to the section on Fleet Registration towards the bottom of this page.
