Workspaces¶

The Workspace resource¶

A Workspace is where Terraform runs are performed for a specific configuration, and where the resulting state file(s) are stored.

Workspaces belong to environments and can have variables configured to provide inputs to the configuration, authenticate providers etc.

Key path

Description

type* (string)

Available values: workspaces

id (string)

attributes.auto-apply (boolean)

Indicates whether terraform apply should automatically run when terraform plan ends without error. Default false.

attributes.created-at (string)

The resource creation timestamp.

attributes.lock-reason (string)

The reason (if any) that the workspace has been locked.

attributes.locked (boolean)

Indicates whether the workspace is locked for operations. The lock-reason attribute carries the explanation.

This semaphore is acquired and released by terraform apply and can also manage it with Lock/Unlock Workspace.

Default: false

attributes.name* (string)

Workspace name which must be unique within the environment.

Comprises letters, numbers, -, and _ only.

attributes.operations (boolean)

Indicates whether the workspace is used for remote execution.

When false workspace is only used to store state.

Default true.

attributes.outputs (array)

The list of output values, associated with the current-state-version

attributes.permissions (object)

attributes.resources (array)

The list of provisioned resources, associated with the current-state-version

attributes.tags (array)

List of key/value pairs.

Tags are used for workspaces (and other API resources) organization into logical groups.

The other use-case for tags is to attach to Scalr resources some meta information, that other software may use in their integrations with Scalr.

attributes.terraform-version (string)

The version of Terraform the workspace performs runs on. If omitted, the system default version is assigned.

attributes.vcs-repo.branch (string)

Branch of a repository the workspace is associated with. If omitted, the repository default branch will be used.

attributes.vcs-repo.identifier* (string)

A reference to your VCS repository.

For GitHub, GitHub Enterprise and GitLab the format is <org>/<repo>. Azure DevOps Services provider has the format <org>/<project>/<repo>.

attributes.vcs-repo.path (string)

The repository sub-directory that Terraform will execute from. If omitted or submitted as an empty string, this defaults to the repository’s root.

attributes.vcs-repo.trigger-prefixes (array)

List of paths (relative to the configuration version root), whose changes will trigger a run for the workspace using this binding when the CV is created. If omitted, any change in he configuration version root will trigger a new run.

attributes.working-directory (string)

A relative path where Terraform commands will execute in.

relationships.configuration-version (object)

The latest uploaded configuration version.

relationships.configuration-version.data.type* (string)

Available values: configuration-versions

Create a Workspace¶

POST /api/iacp/v3/workspaces¶

Workspaces represent a unit of infrastructure managed by terraform.

To create a workspace you must pass name attribute and environment relationship.

A workspace might be linked to a VCS repository, so that any git push will trigger a terraform Run in the workspace.
