Terraform-provider-azurerm: Feature Request: Service Bus Subscription AutoForward

[tribet84]

Subscription ForwardTo property is a very powerful feature in service bus but a particularly tricky thing to configure (e.g. the new Azure portal doesn't even provide a mechanism).

It would be awesome to be able to configure AutoForward from terraform. At the moment I'm using terraform azurerm_template_deployment resource to inject the following arm, hope helps:

{
   "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2015-01-01/deploymentTemplate.json#",
   "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",
   "parameters": {
     "namespaceName": {
       "type": "string"
     },
     "topicName": {
       "type": "string"
     },
     "subscriptionName": {
       "type": "string"
     },
     "autoForwardTo": {
       "type": "string"
     }
   },
   "variables": {
     "subscriptionPath": "[concat(parameters('namespaceName'), '/', parameters('topicName'), '/', parameters('subscriptionName'))]"
   },
   "resources": [
     {
       "apiVersion": "2015-08-01",
       "name":  "[variables('subscriptionPath')]",
       "type": "Microsoft.ServiceBus/namespaces/topics/subscriptions",
       "location": "[resourceGroup().location]",
       "properties": {
           "forwardTo": "[parameters('autoForwardTo')]"
       }
     }
   ],
   "outputs": {
   }
}

hey @tribet84

Thanks for opening this issue

Taking a quick look into this it appears support for ForwardTo is available in the Azure SDK for Go - as such we should be able to add support for this in the near future :)

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick answer @tombuildsstuff Any (rough) deadline? my company is assessing infrastructure tools and terraform looks interesting.

[tombuildsstuff]

@tribet84 since it's not a big change and it already exists in the SDK - my guess would be that we'd get to this sometime in the next couple of weeks. Hope that helps

[tribet84]

Thanks that helps a lot!

We are also about starting to start trailing using terraform with azure. One of our key components makes use of auto forwarding so this feature would be hugely beneficial for us

It looks like this change is almost ready to be approved?

Hi @jpovey

That is correct, I expect this change to be approved and merged soon.

[tribet84]

I work for a company called ASOS and we are close to adopting Terraform in production. The fact that you guys got this request finished in 15 days may help me to convince my managers to move forward using this great tool. Do you guys know when the release will be public?

[tombuildsstuff]

@tribet84 glad to hear it solves your issue - we should be doing a release next week :)

[tombuildsstuff]

:wave: hey @tribet84

Just to let you know that support for this has just been released in v1.2.0 of the AzureRM Provider - full details of what's included are available here: https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-azurerm/blob/v1.2.0/CHANGELOG.md#120-march-02-2018

Thanks!
