xcsh_log_receiver (Resource)

Manages new Log Receiver object in F5 Distributed Cloud.

~> Note: For more information, see the Log Receiver API documentation.

# LogReceiver Resource Example
# Manages new Log Receiver object in F5 Distributed Cloud.
terraform {
required_version = ">= 1.0"
required_providers {
xcsh = {
source = "f5-sales-demo/xcsh"
version = ">= 0.1.0"
}
}
}
# Basic LogReceiver configuration
resource "xcsh_log_receiver" "example" {
name = "example-log-receiver"
namespace = "staging"
}

-> 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.
