Set up authentication for Code Manager

To securely deploy environments, Code Manager needs an authentication token for both authentication and authorization.

Before requesting an authentication token, you must assign a user to the deployment role.

1. In the Puppet Enterprise (PE) console, create a deployment user.
   Create a dedicated deployment user for Code Manager to use.
2. Add the deployment user to the Code Deployers role.

   When you install PE, this role is automatically created with default permissions for code deployment and token lifetime management.

3. Click Generate Password to create a password for the deployment user.
