Hi, this seems as an openstackclient bug, will change the target.

[Steve Martinelli (stevemar)]

as a work around, use the ec2-credentials command by switching OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION to 2.0

[Ramaraja (ramaraja-r)]

Can I get some guidance to reproduce this issue?. I have changed OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3 and I able to List the set of credentials. when I am trying to set the credential, I am getting following error.

ERROR: openstack You are not authorized to perform the requested action: identity:list_projects (Disable debug mode to suppress these details.) (HTTP 403)

    Mark arguments for 'credential' commands as required

    According to the [1], 'user_id', 'type', and 'blob' are all required
    arguments for 'credential set' but the code treats them as optional. Set the
    'required' flag and remove logic supporting missing arguments.
