Syncing Polytomic to GitHub

Polytomic provides a command line tool for importing a workspace's resources into Terraform. This process can be automated using our GitHub Action.

To configure automatic updates to a GitHub repository, follow these steps.

1. Create a new repository in GitHub using our template repository. You can either click "Use template" on GitHub, or use this link to start the process.

   

2. Add your Polytomic API key as a new repository secret named POLYTOMIC_API_KEY.

   

3. Grant permission for GitHub Actions to write to the new repository. You can find instructions for locating the setting here .

The GitHub Action will run and update your configuration every 10 minutes by default. This can be adjusted in the tf-sync.yml workflow definition.
