Terraform OCI Workshop with Terraform Cloud

Please make sure you have added the following environment variables in Terraform Cloud Variables sections

• Tenancy OCID tenancy_ocid
• User OCID user_ocid
• Fingerprint fingerprint by using cat ~/.oci/config
• Private Key private_key - Please be sure add only private_key no path and enter the contents of private keys by cat ~/.oci/oci_api_key_public.pem
• Region short code region
• Compartment OCID - compartment_ocid Note tenancy_ocid will be equals to root compartment_ocid
• ssh_public_key ssh_public_key
• ssh_private_key ssh_private_key

Sample - How to get them

• private_key_path - cat ~/.oci/oci_api_key.pem
• ssh_public_key - cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
• ssh_private_key - cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa
• Public key value in PEM format cat ~/.oci/oci_api_key_public.pem
• verify the fingerprint cat ~/.oci/config

Following are the examples of using variables

variables.tf

variable "tenancy_ocid" {}
variable "user_ocid" {}
variable "fingerprint" {}
# Use private_key not private_key_path
variable "private_key" {}
variable "region" {}
variable "compartment_ocid" {}
variable "ssh_public_key" {}
variable "ssh_private_key" {}

provider.tf

provider "oci" {
  tenancy_ocid         = var.tenancy_ocid
  user_ocid            = var.user_ocid
  fingerprint          = var.fingerprint
  # Use private_key not private_key_path
  private_key          = var.private_key
  region               = var.region
}
