    Dynatrace SaaS only

    This resource requires the API token scopes Read settings (settings.read) and Write settings (settings.write) In case the Platform App configured by such a settings explicitly validates them, authentication via API Token may not be enough. In such a case the environment variables DT_CLIENT_ID and DT_CLIENT_SECRET, or alternatively DT_PLATFORM_TOKEN are required. The following OAuth scopes are required app-engine:apps:run and settings:objects:write. In any case, Terraform will primarily attempt to create or modify the settings using the API Token and if that fails will utilize OAuth for authentication.

    Limitations

    Warning If a resource is created using an API token or without setting DYNATRACE_HTTP_OAUTH_PREFERENCE=true (when both are used), the settings object’s owner will remain empty.

    An empty owner implies:

    • The settings object becomes public, allowing other users with settings permissions to read and modify it.
    • Changing the settings object’s permissions will have no effect, meaning the dynatrace.SettingsPermissions resource can’t alter its access.

    When a settings object is created using platform credentials:

    • The owner is set to the owner of the OAuth client or platform token.

    If the provided schema permits modifications to access modifiers, indicated by ownerBasedAccessControl being set to true, the following statements hold true:

    • By default, the settings object is private; only the owner can read and modify it.
    • Access modifiers can be managed using the dynatrace.SettingsPermissions resource.

    We recommend using platform credentials to ensure a correct setup. In case an API token is needed, we recommend setting DYNATRACE_HTTP_OAUTH_PREFERENCE=true.

    Export Example Usage

    • terraform-provider-dynatrace -export dynatrace.GenericSetting downloads all existing settings related to Platform Apps.

    The full documentation of the export feature is available here.

    Resource Example Usage

    The actual payload of the configuration is essentially any kind of JSON object assigned to the attribute value. The scope attribute is optional and defaults to environment - which is usually the case for settings contributed by Platform Apps. You can best schema for the settings of a specific Platform App find when navigating in the WebUI to these settings and click the ellipsis button.

    Create GenericSetting Resource

    Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

    Constructor syntax

    new GenericSetting(name: string, args: GenericSettingArgs, opts?: CustomResourceOptions);
    @overload
def GenericSetting(resource_name: str,
                   args: GenericSettingArgs,
                   opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None)

@overload
def GenericSetting(resource_name: str,
                   opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None,

    Constructor example

    The following reference example uses placeholder values for all input properties.

    var genericSettingResource = new Dynatrace.GenericSetting("genericSettingResource", new()
{
    Schema = "string",
    Value = "string",
    Scope = "string",
});

    example, err := dynatrace.NewGenericSetting(ctx, "genericSettingResource", &dynatrace.GenericSettingArgs{
	Schema: pulumi.String("string"),
	Value:  pulumi.String("string"),
	Scope:  pulumi.String("string"),
})

    resource "dynatrace_genericsetting" "genericSettingResource" {
  schema = "string"
  value  = "string"
  scope  = "string"
}

    var genericSettingResource = new GenericSetting("genericSettingResource", GenericSettingArgs.builder()
    .schema("string")
    .value("string")
    .scope("string")
    .build());

    generic_setting_resource = dynatrace.GenericSetting("genericSettingResource",
    schema="string",
    value="string",
    scope="string")

    const genericSettingResource = new dynatrace.GenericSetting("genericSettingResource", {
    schema: "string",
    value: "string",
    scope: "string",
});

    type: dynatrace:GenericSetting
properties:
    schema: string
    scope: string
    value: string

    GenericSetting Resource Properties

    To learn more about resource properties and how to use them, see Inputs and Outputs in the Architecture and Concepts docs.

    Inputs

    In Python, inputs that are objects can be passed either as argument classes or as dictionary literals.

    The GenericSetting resource accepts the following input properties:

    Schema string
    Value string
    Scope string
    Schema string
    Value string
    Scope string
    schema string
    value string
    scope string
    schema String
    value String
    scope String
    schema string
    value string
    scope string
    schema str
    value str
    scope str
    schema String
    value String
    scope String

    Outputs

    All input properties are implicitly available as output properties. Additionally, the GenericSetting resource produces the following output properties:

    Id string
    The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
    LocalStorage string
    Id string
    The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
    LocalStorage string
    id string
    The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
    local_storage string
    id String
    The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
    localStorage String
    id string
    The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
    localStorage string
    id str
    The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
    local_storage str
    id String
    The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
    localStorage String
