almaforge_slack_connector Data Source

Read an AlmaForge SlackConnector resource by name.

This data source reads existing cluster resources. It does not create, change, or delete them. Authenticate using the Terraform setup guide. Your identity needs permission to read the selected resources.

The built-in Slack integration reads the connector named slack. See Slack integration for recipient routing and verification. Secret fields are redacted by the API and returned as null.

See the configuration reference for the resource manifest and field context.

Set name to the existing object's metadata.name. The result is available in metadata and spec. A missing object produces an error.

Example Usage​

Save this configuration in a new directory. Replace the example name with the existing object you want to read. Review the plan before applying it. Applying this data-only configuration saves the outputs without changing cluster resources.

Terminal
terraform initterraform plan -out=plan.tfplanterraform apply plan.tfplanterraform output
HCL
terraform {
  required_providers {
    almaforge = {
      source = "get.almaforge.com/almaforge/almaforge"
    }
  }
}

provider "almaforge" {}

data "almaforge_slack_connector" "existing" {
  name = "slack"
}

output "name" {
  value = data.almaforge_slack_connector.existing.metadata.name
}

To manage changes instead of only reading, use the resource. Read resources versus data sources before choosing ownership.
