Hello All,

I am trying to create a dynamic datadog monitor using dynamic block for a list of apps.

I am getting below error.

Error: Unsupported block type

on dynamicmain.tf line 91, in resource “datadog_monitor” “monitor”:
91: dynamic “monitor”{

Code is below

resource “datadog_monitor” “monitor” {
type = “metric alert”
dynamic “monitor”{
for_each = var.my_app_monitors
content {
name = “{monitor.value}" query = "{monitor.key} - {monitor.value}" message = " we are in message for key {monitor.key}”
}
}

}

variable “my_app_monitors” {
default = {
“First” = “value1”
“Second” = “value2”
}
}

No one answered this?!? Wow. I’m sure you solved it by now, just in case:

resource "datadog_monitor" "monitor" {
  for_each = { for monitor in local.monitors : monitor.name => monitor }

  name               = each.value.name
  type               = each.value.type
  message            = each.value.message
  escalation_message = try(each.value.options.escalation_message, null)

  query = each.value.query

  monitor_thresholds {
    ok                = try(each.value.options.thresholds.ok, null)
    warning           = try(each.value.options.thresholds.warning, null)
    critical          = try(each.value.options.thresholds.critical, null)
    critical_recovery = try(each.value.options.thresholds.critical_recovery, null)
  }

  # more values as needed

}

Note in my case, I am using the raw json from https://api.datadoghq.com/api/v1/monitor. You may have your own datastructure, so you’ll need to adapt this from your datastructure.
