We would like to create a new plugin for gcp provider (i.e boundary-plugin-host-aws or boundary-plugin-host-aws)  
Do you have any documentation ?  
Is-it possible to load external plugin without to build all boundary product ?  
(for example boundary-ui to add provider )  
best regards

Hi there,

We have plans to allow external plugins via an API but we haven’t quite gotten there yet, sorry!

Hello @jeff,

If we would to create an plugin and built an boundary binary with this plugin, do you have any documentation or hint to load this plugin like the plugins boundary-host-plugin-aws, boundary-host-plugin-azure.
