The following settings are required:

• endpoint (no default): The URL to send data to. See your F5 Cloud account for details.
• source (no default): A unique identifier that is used to distinguish where this data is coming from (e.g. dev_cluster). This is in addition to the pipeline attributes and resources.
• f5cloud_auth.credential_file (no default): Path to the credential file used to authenticate this client. See your F5 Cloud account for details.

The following settings can be optionally configured:

• f5cloud_auth.audience (no default): Identifies the recipient that the authentication JWT is intended for. See your F5 Cloud account for details.

• timeout (default = 30s): HTTP request time limit. For details see https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/#Client

• read_buffer_size (default = 0): ReadBufferSize for HTTP client.

• write_buffer_size (default = 512 * 1024): WriteBufferSize for HTTP client.

Example:

f5cloud:
  endpoint: https://<ENDPOINT_FOUND_IN_F5_CLOUD_PORTAL>
  source: prod
  f5cloud_auth:
    credential_file: "/etc/creds/key.json"
