How to use Terraform to create Media Service Content Key Policy

Question

When using Terraform there is a module to create the Media Service, but not to create the Content Key Policy.
https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/azurerm/r/media_services_account.html

I can see Azure Content Key Polcies support the .Net SDK, REST api and ARM Templates, so my work around would be to use the Terraform ARM Deployment, but I would rather use more native connection.

Answer 1

Hello Chris,

Based on the response from the engineering team creating content key policy via Terrafrom is currently not supported at this time on Azure Media Service. If you would like to see this as a possible feature please leave your feedback on our Uservoice platform.

Thanks,

Grace

Hello Grace,

Thank you for the response and I will send the feedback on there.

For others reading this post a good work around to keep using Terraform for the infrastructure for this feature is to use the ARM deployment module.
You can then deploy your Media Service via the media service module, get the required details on the output then make up the ARM Template to create the Content Key.
