Linode

Select the Linode option from the list of providers. If you haven't already provided your Linode API token you'll be asked to provide credentials. Provide a name for your credentials and paste your Linode API token into the API key field and click Add credentials.

You can find more details on setting up access to your Linode account in the cloud credentials documentation.

Once you have added your credentials (or if you already had them set up) select your cluster options from the fields below.

Field/Option	Overview
Name	Enter a name for your cluster.
Credentials	Select the set of credentials to use for the provision.
Region	Select the region to deploy your cluster in.
Node size	Select the size of the individual nodes in your cluster.
Node count	Enter the number of nodes to provision in your cluster.

The environment options are refreshed automatically if the information cached by Portainer is over 12 hours old. You can manually refresh the options by clicking Reload cluster details under the Actions section.

You can also expand the More settings section and set groups and tags for your environment now or you can do this later.

Once you have made your selections, click Provision environment to begin the provision. If you have other environments to configure click Next to proceed, otherwise click Close to return to the list of environments where you will see the progress of your provision.
