create

The cldkctl token create command generates a new authentication token to access Cloudeka services. You can specify a name for the token and define its expiration date, either as a number (in days) or a date in DD/MM/YYYY format. This command is useful when you need to create a new API token for authentication without using the Cloudeka Service Portal.

Usage

cldkctl token create [flags]

Steps

Option 1 — Interactive Mode (TUI):

1. Run the following command in your terminal:

./cldkctl token create

1. This will open an interactive token creation prompt in your terminal.

2. In the Token Name field, type a custom name for your token. You cannot proceed by pressing Enter if this field is left empty.

3. In the Expired field, enter either:

• a number (for example 30 for 30 days), or

• a date in the DD/MM/YYYY format (for example 31/12/2025).

You cannot proceed by pressing Enter if this field is left empty.

1. The prompt will then ask:

Create Token?

• Press Y to confirm and create the token.

• Press N to cancel the process.

• Press Shift + Tab to return to the previous field.

1. Once confirmed, the system will display the success message and the generated token.

Option 2 — Using Flags (Non-Interactive Mode):

1. Run the command with the --name and --expired flags to create a token directly without entering the interactive interface:

./cldkctl token create \
  --name "dokumentasiCTL" \
  --expired "31/12/2025"

1. The token will be generated immediately, and a success message will appear.

2. You can then copy and store the token securely for future use
