title: Managing Cloud Credentials
---
<head>
<link rel="canonical" href="https://ranchermanager.docs.rancher.com/reference-guides/user-settings/manage-cloud-credentials"/>
</head>
When you create a cluster [hosted by an infrastructure provider](../../pages-for-subheaders/use-new-nodes-in-an-infra-provider.md), [node templates](../../pages-for-subheaders/use-new-nodes-in-an-infra-provider.md#node-templates) are used to provision the cluster nodes. These templates use Docker Machine configuration options to define an operating system image and settings/parameters for the node.
Node templates can use cloud credentials to access the credential information required to provision nodes in the infrastructure providers. The same cloud credential can be used by multiple node templates. By using a cloud credential, you do not have to re-enter access keys for the same cloud provider. Cloud credentials are stored as Kubernetes secrets.
