Aws_lb - retrieve all ALB ARN's

tonyabrhm · December 16, 2022, 1:44pm

Hi,

I am trying to retrieve all ALB ARN’s to use within aws_wafv2 resource but struggling on a way to do this.

aws_lb data source is limited to return one result as per:

github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws

Allow multiple results for aws_lb data source

An example is LBs provisioned with k8s they all have similar tags and we might want get ARN for each matched some tag. ### New or Affected Resource(s) `aws_lb` or new resource `aws_lbs` ### Potential Terraform Configuration ```hcl data "aws_alb" "test" { tags = { K8sCluster = local.cluster_name } } ``` ### References  * #0000

I can gather the ALBs with bash but I am unsure how to use the results within terraform…

Any ideas anyone?

thanks!
