Linode Integration
Linode (an Akamai company) is a cloud computing platform providing virtual machines, managed Kubernetes, object storage, and more. The Linode integration imports your cost data into the Attribute platform for a consolidated cost view and complete cost attribution.
Create a personal access token
To connect an Akamai Cloud (Linode) account with the Attribute platform, you need an API token with Read Only access to the account's billing and resources.
Create the token as a user without per-resource grants (not a restricted user), so it can read every cluster and Linode.

Sign in to Akamai Cloud Manager.
-
Navigate to your profile > API Tokens.
-
Select Create a Personal Access Token.
-
Set all scopes to Read Only (except VPCs: set to No Access).
-
Set expiry to Never for uninterrupted data collection.
-
Copy the token.
