Dynatrace Dashboard (Grail) via terraform

Hi, this is more of a YSK. It took me sometime to get the grail(swagger) dashboard to be deployed via Terraform. I have listed down a basic code in reply.

1. Create a grail dashboard on UI and download the json.

2. Terraform document link: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/dynatrace-oss/dynatrace/latest/docs/resources/document
3. provider.tf

terraform { required_providers { dynatrace = { version = "~> 1.0" source = "dynatrace-oss/dynatrace" } } } provider "dynatrace" { dt_env_url = var.dynatrace_env_url dt_api_token = var.dynatrace_api_token automation_client_id = var.automation_client_id automation_client_secret = var.automation_client_secret }

4. variables.tf

variable "dynatrace_env_url" { description = "The ENV URL for your Dynatrace environment" type = string } variable "dynatrace_api_token" { description = "The API token for your Dynatrace environment" type = string sensitive = true } variable "automation_client_id" { description = "The client ID for automation and swagger UI dashboard" type = string } variable "automation_client_secret" { description = "The client secret for automation and swagger UI dashboard" type = string sensitive = true }

5. swagger_dashboard.tf

resource "dynatrace_document" "alb_example_tf" { type = "dashboard" name = "ALB Monitoring TF" private = false content = file(format("%s/alb_monitoring.json", path.module)) }

DON'T FORGET TO ADD `private: false`, otherwise only the owner(user who created automation automation secret) can view the dashboard.
You can change owner to yours by setting `owner: UUID` in resource block.
