In the file: https://github.com/alibabacloud-howto/solution-online-leaderboard-redis/blob/main/deployment/terraform/main.tf

If you do not specify the provider parameters in the environment, please set your Alibaba Cloud access key, secret key here.

provider "alicloud" {
  #   access_key = "${var.access_key}"
  #   secret_key = "${var.secret_key}"
  region = "ap-southeast-1"
}
