Retrieves information about a Advertise Policy resource in F5 Distributed Cloud for advertise_policy object controls how and where a service represented by a given virtual_host object is advertised to consumers. configuration. This is a read-only data source.
~> Note: For more information, see the F5 Distributed Cloud API documentation.
Example Usage
Section titled “Example Usage”# AdvertisePolicy Data Source Example
terraform { required_version = ">= 1.0"
required_providers { xcsh = { source = "f5-sales-demo/xcsh" version = ">= 0.1.0" } }}
# Look up an existing AdvertisePolicy by namedata "xcsh_advertise_policy" "example" { name = "example-advertise-policy" namespace = "staging"}
output "advertise_policy_id" { value = data.xcsh_advertise_policy.example.id}Argument Reference
Section titled “Argument Reference”-> Syntax Rule: This provider uses OneOf groups for mutually exclusive options. Fields documented as “Optional Block” use block syntax field_name { ... }. Empty OneOf object attributes use field_name = {}; conditional selection uses condition ? {} : null. Boolean attributes (such as add_hsts and http_redirect) use = true or = false.
