With Terraform, you can quickly create a cloud infrastructure in Yandex Cloud and manage it using configuration files. These files store the infrastructure description written in HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.

Terraform is distributed under the Business Source License. The Yandex Cloud provider for Terraform is distributed under the MPL-2.0 license.

For more information about the provider resources, see the documentation on the Terraform website or mirror website.

If you do not have Terraform yet, install it and configure its Yandex Cloud provider.

To update basic ARL profile parameters:

  1. Open the Terraform configuration file and edit the part with the yandex_sws_advanced_rate_limiter_profile resource description:

    # ARL profile
    
    resource "yandex_sws_advanced_rate_limiter_profile" "arl-profile" {
      name        = "<new_profile_name>"
      description = "<new_profile_description>"
    
      # Rule 1
    
      advanced_rate_limiter_rule {
        name        = "<rule_name>"
        priority    = <rule_priority>
        description = "<rule_description>"
        dry_run     = true
    
        static_quota {
          action = "DENY"
          limit  = <rule_limit>
          period = <rule_period>
          condition {
            request_uri {
              path {
                exact_match = "/api"
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
    

    For more information about the yandex_sws_advanced_rate_limiter_profile resource parameters, see the provider documentation.

  2. Apply the changes:

    1. In the terminal, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file.

    2. Make sure the configuration file is correct using the command:

      terraform validate
      

      If the configuration is correct, the following message is returned:

      Success! The configuration is valid.
      
    3. Run the command:

      terraform plan
      

      The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes are made at this step. If the configuration contains errors, Terraform will point them out.

    4. Apply the configuration changes:

      terraform apply
      
    5. Confirm the changes: type yes in the terminal and press Enter.

    You can check the resources’ updates in the management console.

Use the update REST API method for the AdvancedRateLimiterProfile resource or the AdvancedRateLimiterProfile/Update gRPC API call.
