    Avant de commencer

    Role required: Terraform admin

    Procédure

    1. Create a GitHub repository dedicated to your Terraform templates.
    2. Save the following codes in a separate file.
      • File name: awsaccount.tf
        terraform {
  required_providers {
    aws = {
      source  = "hashicorp/aws"
      version = "~>5.0"
    }
  }
}

provider "aws" {
  region = var.region
}

resource "aws_organizations_account" "account" {
  email = var.root_email
  name = var.account_name
  tags = var.tags
  parent_id = var.parent_id
  close_on_deletion=var.close_delete
  create_govcloud=var.gov_cloud
}

resource "aws_budgets_budget" "cost" {
  name  = join("-", ["SN-CAM-Monthly-Budget", aws_organizations_account.account.id])
  count = var.monthly_budget > 0 ? 1 : 0
  budget_type  = "COST"
  limit_amount = var.monthly_budget
  limit_unit   = "USD"
  time_unit    = "MONTHLY"

  cost_filter {
    name = "LinkedAccount"
    values = [
      aws_organizations_account.account.id
    ]
  }

  notification {
    comparison_operator        = "GREATER_THAN"
    threshold                  = 100
    threshold_type             = "PERCENTAGE"
    notification_type          = "FORECASTED"
    subscriber_email_addresses = [var.root_email, var.notification_email]
  }

  notification {
    comparison_operator        = "GREATER_THAN"
    threshold                  = 85
    threshold_type             = "PERCENTAGE"
    notification_type          = "ACTUAL"
    subscriber_email_addresses = [var.root_email, var.notification_email]
  }

  notification {
    comparison_operator        = "GREATER_THAN"
    threshold                  = 100
    threshold_type             = "PERCENTAGE"
    notification_type          = "ACTUAL"
    subscriber_email_addresses = [var.root_email, var.notification_email]
  }
}
      • File name: variables.tf
        variable "region" {
  type = string
  default = "us-east-1"
}

variable "account_name" {
  type = string
  description = "(Required) Account Name"
}

variable "root_email" {
  type = string
  description = "(Required) Account Email"
}

variable tags{
  type = map(string)
  description = "(Required) Tags for the resource"
}

variable "close_delete" {
  type = bool
  description = "Close Account on deletion"
  default = true
}

variable "gov_cloud" {
  type = bool
  description = "Gov Cloud Account"
  default = false
}

variable "parent_id" {
  type = string
  description = "(Required) Account Parent Organizational Unit"
}

variable monthly_budget {
  type = number
  default = 0
}

variable notification_email {
  type = string
  description = "Additional email where Budget Notifications are to be sent"
}
    3. Push the Terraform files to the remote repository.
    4. Make a note of the location or URL once the template is stored in the GitHub.

      This template is then referenced in Terraform Cloud and the ServiceNow instance to automate the creation of a subscription account.

      Important :

      Don’t modify the template as the variables are closely connected to the application.
