Export individual GC objects using Terraform

[cbhenderson]

I have used the "genesys_tf_export" "export" resource in Terraform to export all instances of a particular Genesys Cloud object (e.g. export all datatables). Is there a way to use Terraform to export a single instance of an object type (e.g. the data table named "My Control Data Table")?

Thanks in advance to the community!

Hi Craig,

There is a new feature in the exporter that should be able with this. You can now filter for resources using a regular expression.

resource "genesyscloud_tf_export" "export" {
  directory = "./terraform"
  // leaving resource_types empty will cause all exportable resources to be exported
  // export all resources of a single type by providing the resource type
  // resources can be exported by name with the syntax `resource_type::regular expression`
  include_filter_resources = ["genesyscloud_user", "genesyscloud_routing_queue::-(dev|test)$"]
  include_state_file       = true
  exclude_attributes       = ["genesyscloud_user.skills"]
}

Feel free to look at the exporter documentation for more info. Ensure you are using the latest version to use this feature.

Regards,
Declan
