Global Values

Create collections of global values to allow admins to define custom drop-downs for the Create form.

Global Values allow admins to define custom drop-downs for customizing terraform infrastructure resource properties before they are provisioned.

You can create and update various collections of Global Values and apply them to your Blueprint(s).

After publishing a collection, the global values will become read-only to avoid breaking existing references to Blueprints.

Global Values Collections contain the following properties:

  • Key: Unique key used to reference the collection

  • Type: The type of data the collection will store. The following data types can be used:

    • Text

    • Number

    • List

    • Object

  • Name: Name of the collection

  • Description: Description of the collection

Once a collection has been created, you can add values with the following properties:

  • Key: Unique key used to reference the option within the collection.

  • Label: Label shown to developers in the dropdown field of the pull-request form.

  • Value: Value to be applied to the generated Terraform.

  • Description: Description of the option.

Once Global Values have been created, they can be applied when creating a resource provision request from a Blueprint.
