I'm looking to automatically deploy my app once we release a new version. We use CircleCI, so firing these commands shouldn't be a big deal.

cf login -a https://api.lyra-836.appcloud.swisscom.com -u myuser -p seret
cf push myapp

However I don't want to expose my personal credentials (Passeport acount) into our git repository. Is it possible to generate an API key for that purpose?

How do you handle that? I might also need to ssh into the instance to fire some migrations scripts after the deployment, same goes there.

CircleCI documentation has a section about handling secrets: Using CircleCI Environment Variables

Setting environment variables for all commands without adding them to git

Occasionally, you’ll need to add an API key or some other secret as an environment variable. You might not want to add the value to your git history. Instead, you can add environment variables using the Project settings > Environment Variables page of your project.

This documentation describes how to store encrypted stuff within your VCS.

If you prefer to keep your sensitive environment variables checked into git, but encrypted, you can follow the process outlined at circleci/encrypted-files.

Currently Swisscoms Application cloud does not offer technical accounts but you can create an additional account easily. Then add it to your org/space as developer and it should be able to fulfill your needs.
