Automating Zitadel Configuration Without Manual UI Interaction or API Calls
Hi, we are setting up our dev environment using docker, and need to configure some Zitadel settings without any manual interaction through the UI. Specifically, we need to set up pre-access token creation, Google and GitHub IdPs, and other configurations.
What approach are you using? We want to automate these tasks but prefer not to rely on code to call the APIs.

hi @JoseSzycho as of right now, there is a guide to deploy zitadel with a service user already created with docker compose
https://zitadel.com/docs/self-hosting/deploy/compose#docker-compose-with-service-account
on top of that you can configure your Zitadel instance with all these options with defaults.yaml
that gives you more control over what all things you'd like to have when you start your instance.
Few options that
defaults.yaml provides are Logging,Metrics, Tracing, Profiler, etc. The list is long so you might have to read it to get a better understanding.
Now if I talk specifics, altho there is no "direct" configuration option to setup IDP, but it enables the possibility of using external IDPs(check the flag in defaults.yaml AllowExternalIDP when set to true allows instances to configure and use external identity providers).
As for the Pre Access token Creation, this is done via Actions in Zitadel.
Here is the relevant doc for the same
Once you read about Actions a bit you should be able to understand about it.
Hope this helps and please feel free to ask me more questions there's any more questions.ZITADEL Docs
This flow is executed during the creation of tokens and token introspection.

The setup is tested against Docker version 20.10.17 and Docker Compose version v2.2.3

This page describes the options you have when writing ZITADEL actions scripts.

This guide assumes you are familiar with running ZITADEL using the least amount of configuration possible.
