Terraform Provider for Rootly

Terraform Provider for Rootly

🧪 Terraform Provider for Rootly

We are excited to introduce our long- awaited Terraform provider making infrastructure as code effortless.

Engineering teams can now manage Rootly directly in code making distributed ownership of their service ownership even easier.

No more needing to click into the Web platform to manage configurations, example use cases:

  • Manage teams and roles
  • Manage severities, incident causes, types, etc.
  • Import infrastructure such as services and functionalities

Our Terraform provider can be found here and documentation here.

In addition, we also have our Rootly API available, learn more here.
