# Oracle Cloud Install & Auth

## Overview

Configure API key authentication for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). OCI auth requires a `~/.oci/config` file with **five mandatory fields** — user OCID, fingerprint, tenancy OCID, region, and the path to an RSA private key. One wrong field produces the cryptic `ConfigFileNotFound` or `InvalidKeyFilePath` error with no hint about which field failed.

**Purpose:** Produce a validated `~/.oci/config` file, generate an RSA key pair, upload the public key to OCI, and verify connectivity with both the Python SDK and OCI CLI.

## Prerequisites

- **OCI account** with an active tenancy — sign up at https://cloud.oracle.com
- **Python 3.8+** (the OCI Python SDK is the most mature SDK)
- **OpenSSL** installed (for RSA key generation)
- Your **user OCID** (Profile > User Settings in the OCI Console) — format: `ocid1.user.oc1..aaaa...`
- Your **tenancy OCID** (Administration > Tenancy Details) — format: `ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaa...`
