ryan-crabbe-berri a7f180fdd8 feat(terraform): make credential adoption opt-in, escape names in request URLs
Terraform's convention is that create does not seize a resource the
configuration never made, and credential_values holds secrets that are never
read back into state, so a silent takeover overwrites values no plan showed.
A name collision now fails with the terraform import command that adopts the
existing credential explicitly, and adopt_existing = true opts into taking it
over during create. The provider detects the conflict by the proxy's 409 and
keeps the Prisma string match as a fallback for older proxies

Credential names and model_id went into URLs raw, so a name with a slash or a
question mark hit the wrong route. Every credential URL is now built from a
package const through fmt.Sprintf with url.PathEscape or url.QueryEscape,
which the endpoint audit can resolve. Toggling adopt_existing alone no longer
sends a PATCH, so it does not rewrite the stored secret

# litellm_credential (Resource)
Manages a LiteLLM credential for storing sensitive authentication information. Credentials can be used to securely store API keys, tokens, and other sensitive data that can be referenced by models and vector stores.
## Example Usage
### Basic OpenAI Credential
```terraform
resource "litellm_credential" "openai_cred" {
credential_name = "openai-api-key"
model_id = "gpt-4"
credential_info = {
provider = "openai"
region = "us-east-1"
purpose = "chat-completions"
}
credential_values = {
api_key = var.openai_api_key
org_id = var.openai_org_id
}
}
```
### Anthropic Credential
```terraform
resource "litellm_credential" "anthropic_cred" {
credential_name = "anthropic-api-key"
credential_info = {
provider = "anthropic"
purpose = "text-generation"
}
credential_values = {
api_key = var.anthropic_api_key
}
}
```
### Pinecone Vector Store Credential
```terraform
resource "litellm_credential" "pinecone_cred" {
credential_name = "pinecone-production"
credential_info = {
provider = "pinecone"
environment = "production"
region = "us-east-1"
}
credential_values = {
api_key = var.pinecone_api_key
index_name = "document-embeddings"
}
}
```
### Using Credentials with Vector Store
```terraform
resource "litellm_vector_store" "example" {
vector_store_name = "my-vector-store"
custom_llm_provider = "pinecone"
litellm_credential_name = litellm_credential.pinecone_cred.credential_name
vector_store_description = "Example vector store using Pinecone"
vector_store_metadata = {
environment = "production"
team = "ai-team"
}
}
```
### Multiple Provider Credentials
```terraform
# AWS Bedrock credential
resource "litellm_credential" "aws_bedrock" {
credential_name = "aws-bedrock-cred"
credential_info = {
provider = "aws"
service = "bedrock"
region = "us-east-1"
}
credential_values = {
aws_access_key_id = var.aws_access_key_id
aws_secret_access_key = var.aws_secret_access_key
aws_region = "us-east-1"
}
}
# Azure OpenAI credential
resource "litellm_credential" "azure_openai" {
credential_name = "azure-openai-cred"
credential_info = {
provider = "azure"
service = "openai"
}
credential_values = {
api_key = var.azure_openai_key
api_base = var.azure_openai_endpoint
api_version = "2023-12-01-preview"
}
}
```
## Argument Reference
The following arguments are supported:
* `credential_name` - (Required) Name of the credential. This will be used as the identifier for the credential.
* `credential_values` - (Required, Sensitive) Map of sensitive credential values such as API keys, tokens, etc.
* `model_id` - (Optional) Model ID associated with this credential.
* `credential_info` - (Optional) Map of additional non-sensitive information about the credential.
* `adopt_existing` - (Optional, default `false`) Take over a credential of this name that already exists on the proxy instead of failing. Turning this on overwrites the existing credential's values with the ones in this configuration.
## Attributes Reference
In addition to all arguments above, the following attributes are exported:
* `credential_name` - The name of the credential.
## Import
Credentials can be imported using their name:
```shell
terraform import litellm_credential.example "credential-name"
```
## Security Considerations
* The `credential_values` field is marked as sensitive and will not be displayed in Terraform output or logs.
* Credential values are not read back from the API for security reasons, so they are preserved in the Terraform state.
* Like every Terraform attribute marked `Sensitive`, `credential_values` is still written in plaintext to the state file. Anyone with read access to the state (or state artifacts such as plan files) can recover the configured secrets. Use an encrypted remote backend with tight access controls, and prefer feeding secrets in via variables sourced from a secret manager rather than hardcoding them in configuration.
