Hi all,
My goal is to use SAP BTP Terraform provider + CF Terraform provider to manage some CloudFoundry environments, but I think I'm hitting an issue around CF organization visibility at the CF CLI level (outside of Terraform at all).
I had Terraform code which was working previously. The CF environment is created via BTP Terraform, and then I'm using the CloudFoundry Terraform provider to get information about that CF org and do things like create spaces and instances, etc.
When I attempted to use this code, the Terraform data source told me that the CF organization couldn't be found. To troubleshoot it, I used the CF CLI to login and try to see the orgs.
But, when I login to the CF CLI, and I see the list of orgs, the orgs are only available for the original global account I was an admin for. I'm the admin of two global accounts now, including one that was created recently where I'm now creating all these resources.
So I'm trying to understand - when I login to the CF CLI with my BTP username and password, how can I ensure that it shows available organizations from all of my BTP global accounts, instead of just one account? Is there something I need to configure in order to make that new global account visible to the CF CLI when listing CF orgs?
In this case, while I thought the issue was visibility, it turned out to be an issue with not understanding that CF API endpoints weren't guaranteed to match regions. This assumption worked for a while but then was invalidated.
Gregor's comments here and Christian's explanations at https://github.com/SAP/terraform-provider-btp/issues/538 helped me untangle this.
I'll copy Christian's explanation here:
---
The CF orgs are depending on their regional assignment created in the so called extension landscapes (see https://help.sap.com/docs/custom-domain/custom-domain-manager/extension-landscapes). This impacts the CF API endpoint.
After creation of the CF environment via the Terraform provider you can fetch the right API endpoint URL from the labels that are created for the environment. We have an example for this here: https://github.com/SAP-samples/btp-terraform-samples/tree/main/released/modules/environment/cloudfou...
---
So, my next steps will be to use that output as the reference for my CF API endpoint rather than hard-coding it.
