env zero offers a private registry solution for both your Terraform modules and providers. You can access your organization’s registry by clicking on the Registry link on the side navigation bar:

Authorization

When running private modules or providers, Terraform will have to authorize you to ensure you have read access to them. When deploying through env zero, we will take care of this authorization for you.

Local Usage

If you’d like to run Terraform code that uses a private registry, you will need to supply the authentication details to Terraform. These must be supplied in a file called terraform.rc (for Windows) or ~/.terraformrc (other systems).

Manually setting the token

Option 1 - Terraform rc file

You can use an API Key (obtained from your organization’s Settings page). The API key must be entered into the terraform rc file like this:
Here’s an example of how to generate your token (in a Mac terminal)
Your ~/.terraformrc should look something like this.
The .terraformrc file must be stored in the home directory (~/)
These instructions are also available in the Instructions tab of the module or provider page.

Option 2 - TF_TOKEN_api_env0_com

This setting is only supported for Terraform Version 1.2+
Use an environment variable named TF_TOKEN_api_env0_com. You can retrieve the encoded token when you create a new API key, or you can generate and assign the API with the following example. See: Terraform - Environment Variable Credentials

Terragrunt Authentication

When using Terragrunt, you will also need to set the TG_TF_REGISTRY_TOKEN environment variable to the encoded authentication value:
