# Terraform registry credentials
To import **Terraform** modules from a [private registry](https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/registry/private), you need to provide the credentials to access the registry.
**Registry** credentials used by **Terraform** require two pieces of information:
* The **hostname** of your private registry
* The **token** used to authenticate with the registry
To add new registry credentials, follow these steps:
1. Go to the [Registry credentials page](https://app.brainboard.co/settings/terraform-registry).
2. Click on the **`Create credentials`** button and fill in the following information on the **Create credentials** modal.
* **Name:** Name of the credential.
* **Host:** Terraform registry hostname.
* **Token:** Terraform registry token.
* **Scope:**
* **Organization:** Credentials will be available to all users in the organization.
* **User (myself):** Credentials will be available only to you.
{% hint style="warning" %}
**Credentials scope** can only be set at creation. You will not be able to change credentials scope after creation.
{% endhint %}
3. Click on the **`Create`** button to save your credentials.
