- - the deprecated `tower-cli` [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/ansible-tower-cli/)
- - no requirements
+You can specify authentication by a combination of either:
+ - host, username, password
+ - host, OAuth2 token
 
-See requirements in the `DOCUMENTATION` string specific to each module.
+The OAuth2 token is the preferred method. You can obtain a token via the
+AWX CLI [login](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/towercli/reference.html#awx-login)
+command.
+
+These can be specified via:
+ - environment variables (most useful when running against localhost)
+ - direct module parameters
+ - a config file path specified by the `tower_config_file` parameter
+ - a config file at `/etc/tower/tower_cli.cfg`
+ - a config file at `~/.tower_cli.cfg`

+Config file syntax looks like this:

+```

-have it function as a collection.
+Notable releases of the `awx.awx` collection:
+ - 7.0.0 is intended to be identical to the content prior to the migration, aside from changes necessary to function as a collection
+ - 11.0.0 has no non-deprecated modules that depend on the deprecated `tower-cli` [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/ansible-tower-cli/)
 
 The following notes are changes that may require changes to playbooks:
 
-
  - When a project is created, it will wait for the update/sync to finish by default; this can be turned off with the `wait` parameter, if desired.
  - Creating a "scan" type job template is no longer supported.
  - Specifying a custom certificate via the `TOWER_CERTIFICATE` environment variable no longer works.

 ## Running Integration Tests
 
 The integration tests require a virtualenv with `ansible` >= 2.9 and `tower_cli`.
 The collection must first be installed, which can be done using `make install_collection`.
-You also need a configuration file at `~/.tower_cli.cfg` or
-`/etc/tower/tower_cli.cfg` with the credentials for accessing tower. This can
-be populated using `tower-cli`:
-
-```
-tower-cli config host $HOST
-tower-cli config username $USERNAME
-tower-cli config password $PASSWORD
-# This tells the tower-cli not to veriffy the ssl certs in the tower, if your tower has good certs you should leave this to true
-tower-cli config verify_ssl false

+You also need a configuration file, as described in the running section.
