Terraform provider Platform tokens/OAuth client resource

We'd like to manage via the dynatrace terraform provider:

Platform tokens
OAuth clients

could this be added? thanks a lot!

Hi @mari_steiner

Currently, the Dynatrace Terraform provider doesn't have dedicated resources for Platform tokens or OAuth clients.

But go through the docs describe using them for provider authentication, not necessarily provisioning them via Terraform resources

Terraform API support and access permission handling — Dynatrace Docs

Thanks,

Sujit

I second the request, in our case we'd like to manage the platform tokens for AWS logs/events ingestion.

The documentation for the existing API token resource doesn't make it very clear that platform tokens are not supported.

https://registry.terraform.io/providers/dynatrace-oss/dynatrace/latest/docs/resources/api_token

On top of that when you try and specify platform token scopes like data-acquisition:logs:ingest you get a rather unhelpful error:

module.dynatrace_aws_connection.dynatrace_api_token.ingest_token[0]: Creating...
