## Notes

Note

- Ansible uses the `cs` library’s configuration method if credentials are not provided by the arguments `api_url`, `api_key`, `api_secret`. Configuration is read from several locations, in the following order. The `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT`, `CLOUDSTACK_KEY`, `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` and `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD`. `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` environment variables. A `CLOUDSTACK_CONFIG` environment variable pointing to an `.ini` file. A `cloudstack.ini` file in the current working directory. A `.cloudstack.ini` file in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections in `cloudstack.ini`. Use the argument `api_region` to select the section name, default section is `cloudstack`. See https://github.com/exoscale/cs for more information.

- A detailed guide about cloudstack modules can be found in the CloudStack Cloud Guide.

- This module supports check mode.
