[Solved] How do we register a PCF Service Broker as reachable from two spaces in the same PCF Org (with org admin permissions)?

How do I register a Pivotal Cloud Foundry Service Broker to make it accessible from multiple spaces within the same Organization, if I have Org-level permissions?

I don’t think you can do this. You’d need to be a platform admin/operator. Then you’d need to register the service broker with the platform & mark that broker as accessible to select orgs & spaces. You could then create services instances & if the broker permits share them across spaces.

If you only have org/space permissions, you can only register the service broker with a specific space. It’s then only visible in that space.

Without platform admin/operator permissions, I think the best you could do would be this:

  1. register the broker in a specific space
  2. create a service instance in that space
  3. bind that to your apps in this space
  4. create a service key for your app in the second space
  5. switch to the second space
  6. create a user provided service in that space and enter the service key info
  7. Repeat steps 4-6 for each app in the second service (this ensure you get unique credentials per app, you could use one service key for all apps if you don’t care about this).

Happy to be corrected, but I think that is the state of things as I write this.
