Potential Terraform Configuration

# Sample Terraform config that describes how the new resource might look.

resource "example_resource" {
  connection_name = "shared_sql"
  environment_id = "####-####-##########"
  connectionParameters = {
    ...
  }
}

Important

Consider making the connectionParameters sensitive since it may contain credentials for some connectors

The lack of exposed claims Connecivity.Connection.Read and Connectivity.Connection.Write is blocking us from getting the authentication process to function.
The way how connector JSON definition defines authentication options makes is currently very hard (if not impossible) which connection parameters are needed for which non-interactive authentication flow.
