This Terraform configuration sets up the necessary AWS resources for integrating Expel Workbench with a new AWS CloudTrail instance.
The Basic configuration is designed for a simple onboarding experience, assuming a single AWS Account is being onboarded with a new CloudTrail entity.
region: The AWS region where the CloudTrail resources will be created.expel_customer_organization_guid: The organization GUID assigned by Expel for the integration. This GUID can be found in the browser URL after navigating to Settings > My Organization in Workbench.
aws: The AWS provider used to create the CloudTrail resources. The region is set based on the value of the "region" variable.
expel_aws_cloudtrail_integration: The Expel AWS CloudTrail module. It requires several input variables, including the path to the module source code, a map of provider aliases and their corresponding provider configurations, and various settings related to the CloudTrail resources.
expel_aws_cloudtrail_integration: The output of theexpel_aws_cloudtrail_integrationmodule. This output can be used to reference the module's resources in other parts of your Terraform configuration.
Follow these steps to deploy the configuration:
- Initialize Terraform in your working directory. This will download the necessary provider plugins.
- Apply the Terraform configuration. Ensure you have a
terraform.tfvarsfile in your working directory with all the necessary variables:
terraform init
terraform apply -var-file="terraform.tfvars"Note: This configuration may create resources that incur costs in AWS (such as an AWS S3 bucket). To avoid unnecessary charges, run the terraform destroy command to remove these resources when they are no longer needed.
Ensure you have the following software installed on your machine:
| Software | Version |
|---|---|
| Terraform | = 1.1.3 |
| AWS Provider | = 4.0 |
Refer to the official Terraform documentation and AWS Provider documentation for installation instructions.
