dtcloud_storage_policies (Data Source)

Lists the storage policies available in the region.

storage_policy is required on every volume and has no default, so this is how to find the valid values. The endpoint returns only the policies with a non-zero quota for the project, so what comes back is what this project can actually create volumes on, not the whole platform catalogue.

Example Usage​

data "dtcloud_storage_policies" "available" {}

output "policy_names" {
  value = data.dtcloud_storage_policies.available.names
}

Schema​

Optional​

  • name (String) Only return the policy with this exact name. Applied by the provider — the API has no filter.

Read-Only​

  • id (String) The ID of this resource.
  • names (List of String) Just the policy names, for when all you need is to check one is available.
  • policies (List of Object) Storage policies this project has quota for. (see below for nested schema)

Nested Schema for policies​

Read-Only:

  • id (String)
  • name (String)

Behaviour worth knowing​

warning

Pass the name, not the id. The volume details endpoint reports the policy by name, so a volume created with an id reads back as a name and every later plan proposes a change that never converges.

  • name is applied by the provider and must match exactly.
