- Create a standalone service instance from existing credentials.
Synopsis
kf create-user-provided-service SERVICE_INSTANCE [-p CREDENTIALS] [-t TAGS] [flags]
Description
Creates a standalone service instance from existing credentials. User-provided services can be used to inject credentials for services managed outside of Kf into Apps.
Credentials are stored in a Kubernetes Secret in the Space the service is created in. On GKE these Secrets are encrypted at rest and can optionally be encrypted using KMS.
Examples
# Bring an existing database service
kf create-user-provided-service db-service -p '{"url":"mysql://..."}'
