@Marvin how to setup basic auth for oss prefect

Setting up basic authentication for Prefect OSS (Open Source Server) depends on the version you are using. Here's a summary of the relevant steps: ### Prefect 2.x: 1. Install Prefect:

pip install -U prefect

2. Configure Prefect Server: Prefect 2.x documentation does not clearly specify basic authentication. However, you can connect to Prefect Cloud with a basic login:

prefect cloud login

This allows interactive login with an API key or web browser. 3. Manage Authentication via CLI: You might need an API key if you're working with Prefect Cloud:

prefect cloud login -k '<my-api-key>'

4. Additional Resources: For further details, refer to these links: - Connecting to Prefect Cloud - Prefect Databricks Credentials ### Prefect 3.x: 1. Install Prefect:

pip install -U prefect

2. API Key Authentication: You can create an API key to authenticate your local environment with Prefect Cloud: - Go to the account icon in Prefect Cloud UI. - Select "API Keys" and generate a new key. 3. Login Command: Use the following CLI command to login with your API key:

prefect cloud login -k '<my-api-key>'

4. SSO Configuration: Prefect Cloud Enterprise offers SSO (Single Sign-On) integration with identity providers supporting OIDC or SAML 2.0: - Enable SSO for your domain in the Prefect Cloud UI. - Configure it using the identity provider's dashboard. 5. Additional Resources: - Connecting to Prefect Cloud - Manage API Keys - Configure SSO For setting up basic authentication on Prefect OSS specifically, you may need to look into configuring your infrastructure (e.g., using reverse proxies like Nginx or Traefik that support basic auth) as the provided Prefect setups do not natively support basic auth configurations directly.

@Marvin I want to add basic to the prefect server instance I have deployed in my kubernetes namespace

To add basic authentication to your Prefect Server instance deployed in your Kubernetes namespace, you will need to use an ingress controller that supports basic authentication, such as Nginx or Traefik. Here is a general approach you can follow: ### Using Nginx Ingress Controller 1. Install Nginx Ingress Controller: Install Nginx Ingress Controller in your Kubernetes cluster using Helm:

bash
   helm repo add ingress-nginx <https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx>
   helm repo update
   helm install nginx-ingress ingress-nginx/ingress-nginx --namespace ingress-nginx --create-namespace

2. Create a Secret for Basic Auth: Generate a password file using

htpasswd

(you might need to install

apache2-utils

package if it's not available):

bash
   htpasswd -c auth myuser

This will prompt you to enter a password for "myuser". Once done, create a Kubernetes secret from this file:

bash
   kubectl create secret generic basic-auth --from-file=auth -n your-namespace

3. Create an Ingress Resource: Define an Ingress resource with the basic authentication annotation:

yaml
   apiVersion: <http://networking.k8s.io/v1|networking.k8s.io/v1>
   kind: Ingress
   metadata:
     name: prefect-server-ingress
     namespace: your-namespace
     annotations:
       <http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-type|nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-type>: "basic"
       <http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-secret|nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-secret>: "basic-auth"
       <http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-realm|nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-realm>: "Authentication Required"
   spec:
     rules:
     - host: <your-domain>
       http:
         paths:
         - path: /
           pathType: Prefix
           backend:
             service:
               name: prefect-server
               port:
                 number: 80

Replace

<your-domain>

with your domain and adjust the service name and port according to your Prefect Server deployment. 4. Deploy Ingress Resource: Apply the Ingress resource:

bash
   kubectl apply -f ingress-resource.yaml

### Using Traefik Ingress Controller 1. Install Traefik: Install Traefik in your Kubernetes cluster using Helm:

bash
   helm repo add traefik <https://helm.traefik.io/traefik>
   helm repo update
   helm install traefik traefik/traefik --namespace kube-system

2. Create a Secret for Basic Auth: Similar to the above steps, generate a password file and create a secret:

bash
   htpasswd -c auth myuser
   kubectl create secret generic basic-auth --from-file=auth -n your-namespace

3. Create an IngressRoute Resource: Define an IngressRoute resource for Traefik:

yaml
   apiVersion: <http://traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1|traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1>
   kind: IngressRoute
   metadata:
     name: prefect-server-ingress
     namespace: your-namespace
   spec:
     entryPoints:
       - web
     routes:
       - match: Host(`<your-domain>`)
         kind: Rule
         services:
           - name: prefect-server
             port: 80
         middlewares:
           - name: authmiddleware
   ---
   apiVersion: <http://traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1|traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1>
   kind: Middleware
   metadata:
     name: authmiddleware
     namespace: your-namespace
   spec:
     basicAuth:
       secret: basic-auth

Replace

<your-domain>

with your domain and adjust the service name and port according to your Prefect Server deployment. 4. Deploy IngressRoute Resource: Apply the IngressRoute resource:

bash
   kubectl apply -f ingressroute-resource.yaml

@Marvin how can I create users in my prefect service

Creating users in your Prefect Service involves managing user accounts and roles primarily in Prefect Cloud. Here’s how you can manage user accounts based on the Prefect version: ### Prefect 2.x: 1. Create a User Account in Prefect Cloud: - Sign up for a Prefect Cloud account at app.prefect.cloud. - An individual user can be invited to join other accounts as well. 2. User Settings: - Users can access their personal settings by clicking on the profile menu. Here, they can manage their profile, API keys, preferences, and feature previews. 3. Account Roles: - Users in an account can have roles such as Admin or Member. Admins can invite other users to join the account and manage workspaces and teams. - Admins on Pro and Custom tier accounts can also grant roles within a workspace such as Runner or Viewer. 4. Service Accounts: - Service accounts can be created for non-user-associated task automations with API key access. Reference for Prefect 2.x: - Prefect Cloud User Management ### Prefect 3.x: 1. Create a User Account in Prefect Cloud: - Sign up for a Prefect Cloud account at app.prefect.cloud. - Users can be invited to other accounts similarly. 2. User Settings: - Personal settings are accessible in the profile menu, where users can manage their profile, API keys, preferences, and feature previews. 3. Account Roles: - Account roles include Admin and Member, with Admins having the ability to invite users and manage the account’s workspaces and teams. - On Pro and Enterprise tier accounts, Admins can grant specific roles within a workspace, with custom roles available for Enterprise tiers. 4. Manage User Accounts: - Navigate to the user management section in the Prefect Cloud UI to manage users and roles. Reference for Prefect 3.x: - Manage User Accounts in Prefect 3.x For both versions, adding users to your Prefect Service often involves using Prefect Cloud, where user management functionalities like invitations, role assignments, and API keys are handled via the platform’s UI. If you are using open-source Prefect Server without Prefect Cloud, user management features are not natively supported in the open-source version, and you might need to implement custom authentication and user management solutions yourself.
