Just-In-Time Access Requests for Your DevOps Workflow

Summary: This is a summary of an article originally published by the source. Read the full original article here →

Just-in-time access to infrastructure is powered by one of Teleport's most useful features: Access Requests. A Teleport Access Request is a self-initiated request on the behalf of a user to elevate their access temporarily. After receiving approval for the Access Request, the user's short-lived certificates are updated to their approved temporary roles.

A Teleport Slack plugin can be used to DM users or post to a private channel to approve a request. 

The dockerizing example is reusable for any of the Access Request plugins, and is deployable to Docker, Docker-Compose, and Kubernetes environments. The method also follows the Docker approach for the Teleport Dockerfile. We hope this makes integrating just-in-time access requests into your DevOps workflow much easier.
