Terraform：Cloudwatch Canary Synthetics，如何创建指标警报

Question

I try to create an alarm for my canary resource. I can't find a solution to reference my canary in my resource for aws_cloudwatch_metric_alarm . In the console there is a parameter CanaryName

I can create my canary with:

resource "aws_synthetics_canary" "some" {
  name                 = "some-canary"
  artifact_s3_location = "s3://some-bucket/"
  execution_role_arn   = "some-role"
  handler              = "exports.handler"
  zip_file             = "test-fixtures/lambdatest.zip"
  runtime_version      = "syn-1.0"

  schedule {
    expression = "rate(0 minute)"
  }
}

And with aws_cloudwatch_metric_alarm I want to create the alarm to the associated canary but I am missing a parameter like CanaryName:

resource "aws_cloudwatch_metric_alarm" "foobar" {
  alarm_name                = "terraform-test-foobar5"
  comparison_operator       = "GreaterThanOrEqualToThreshold"
  evaluation_periods        = "2"
  metric_name               = "CPUUtilization"
  namespace                 = "AWS/EC2"
  period                    = "120"
  statistic                 = "Average"
  threshold                 = "80"
  alarm_description         = "This metric monitors ec2 cpu utilization"
  insufficient_data_actions = []
}

Namespace CloudWatchSynthetics is working

Any idea how to solve this?

Thanks!

Answer 1

  dimensions = {
    CanaryName = "NAME_OF_CANARY"
  }

That's how you reference a canary name:-)
