NOTE: This feature requires Consul Enterprise.
The consul.NamespaceRoleAttachment resource links a Consul Namespace and an ACL
role. The link is implemented through an update to the Consul Namespace.
NOTE: This resource is only useful to attach roles to a namespace that has been created outside the current Terraform configuration, like the
defaultnamespace. If the namespace you need to attach a role to has been created in the current Terraform configuration and will only be used in it, you should use theroleDefaultsattribute ofconsul.Namespace.
Example Usage
Attach a role to the default namespace
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as consul from "@pulumi/consul";
const agent = new consul.AclRole("agent", {name: "agent"});
const attachment = new consul.NamespaceRoleAttachment("attachment", {
namespace: "default",
role: agent.name,
});
import pulumi
import pulumi_consul as consul
agent = consul.AclRole("agent", name="agent")
attachment = consul.NamespaceRoleAttachment("attachment",
namespace="default",
role=agent.name)

NOTE: consulAclNamespace would attempt to enforce an empty set of default
roles, because its roleDefaults attribute is empty. For this reason it
is necessary to add the lifecycle clause to prevent Terraform from attempting to
empty the set of policies associated to the namespace.

NamespaceRoleAttachment Resource Properties
To learn more about resource properties and how to use them, see Inputs and Outputs in the Architecture and Concepts docs.
Inputs
In Python, inputs that are objects can be passed either as argument classes or as dictionary literals.
The NamespaceRoleAttachment resource accepts the following input properties:
Outputs
All input properties are implicitly available as output properties. Additionally, the NamespaceRoleAttachment resource produces the following output properties:
- Id string
- The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.

- id String
- The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
- id string
- The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
- id str
- The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.
- id String
- The provider-assigned unique ID for this managed resource.

Import
consul.NamespaceRoleAttachment can be imported. This is especially useful
to manage the policies attached to the default namespace:
$ pulumi import consul:index/namespaceRoleAttachment:NamespaceRoleAttachment default default:role_name
