» oci_identity_tag_namespace

This resource provides the Tag Namespace resource in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Identity service.

Creates a new tag namespace in the specified compartment.

You must specify the compartment ID in the request object (remember that the tenancy is simply the root compartment).

You must also specify a name for the namespace, which must be unique across all namespaces in your tenancy and cannot be changed. The name can contain any ASCII character except the space (_) or period (.). Names are case insensitive. That means, for example, "myNamespace" and "mynamespace" are not allowed in the same tenancy. Once you created a namespace, you cannot change the name. If you specify a name that's already in use in the tenancy, a 409 error is returned.

You must also specify a description for the namespace. It does not have to be unique, and you can change it with UpdateTagNamespace.

Tag namespaces cannot be deleted, but they can be retired. See Retiring Key Definitions and Namespace Definitions for more information.

» Example Usage 

resource "oci_identity_tag_namespace" "test_tag_namespace" {
    #Required
    compartment_id = "${var.compartment_id}"
    description = "${var.tag_namespace_description}"
    name = "${var.tag_namespace_name}"

    #Optional
    defined_tags = {"Operations.CostCenter"= "42"}
    freeform_tags = {"Department"= "Finance"}
    is_retired = false
}

» Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  • compartment_id - (Required) (Updatable) The OCID of the tenancy containing the tag namespace.
  • defined_tags - (Optional) (Updatable) Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags. Example: {"Operations.CostCenter": "42"}
  • description - (Required) (Updatable) The description you assign to the tag namespace during creation.
  • freeform_tags - (Optional) (Updatable) Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags. Example: {"Department": "Finance"}
  • name - (Required) The name you assign to the tag namespace during creation. It must be unique across all tag namespaces in the tenancy and cannot be changed.
  • is_retired - (Optional) (Updatable) Whether the tag namespace is retired. For more information, see Retiring Key Definitions and Namespace Definitions.

** IMPORTANT ** Any change to a property that does not support update will force the destruction and recreation of the resource with the new property values
