Feature request - Add support for VCD Service Accounts

[adenoudsten96]

Hi,

VMWare recently added Service Accounts to its VCD product to authenticate to the VCD API for automation based workflows. This option is inherently more secure than API-token based authentication or user-based authentication and we would like to use it in our organization. The Terraform VCD provider 3.8.2 does not, however, currently support authentication via VCD Service Accounts.

I was wondering if support for authentication via VCD Service Accounts is currently on the roadmap for the Terraform VCD provider, or if some sort of workaround is available that is also supported. I've been manually refreshing the authorization tokens via the VCD API, but I would prefer it if Terraform did this for me.

Thanks!

Hello, thank you for the issue - we're well aware of service accounts as well and are evaluating when it can be added

Merged in #1040, will be available in the v3.9.0 release of the provider.
