I am working on a way to script the rollout of a rancher cluster. I have successful completed all steps, but I want to be able to create users and cloud credentials using kubectl. How can that be done?

Perhaps crossplane would suffice: https://doc.crds.dev/github.com/crossplane-contrib/provider-jet-rancher

While 'users' are resources inside of the local rancher cluster they are created with a unique ID field that allows rancher to index them the UID usually starts with

u-

The rancher application itself needs to be the thing that creates them so you can technically do this by POSTing to a Rancher API endpoint. This is not a recommended approach since the API is not really designed for this use case. Really the only truly supported method at this time would be using Terraform.

Thanks for the reply!
