Terraform - Passing Parameters

  • In order to pass parameters using Terraform, a Parameter should be created in the Tool Registry.

  • Parameter values can either be hardcoded or stored in the customer vault.

  • Value will be stored in the vault in the mentioned format OPSERA_CUSTOM_${_id}.

  • You can then utilize this Parameter for passing it via Terraform and in the Command Line step configuration.
