Parameters

CloudTruth Parameters allows management of parameters from a central source. This enables reeling in complicated and scattered configuration sprawl. Here is a list of how to manage parameters and the additional features we provide beyond simply providing a centralized parameter storage solution.

• Standard (non-secret) and Secret Parameters

• Internal and External Parameter Value types

• Comparison of Values

• History of Values

• Validation of Values

• Expiration of Values

CloudTruth Parameters exist across all Environments in a project. Parameters are always scoped to the selected Project. There are two parameter value types:

Parameter	Definition
Internal	User-defined parameter and value where values can be static or dynamically reference other CloudTruth objects (project, environment, other parameters, etc.)
External	Automatic parameter and value retrieved from an external source using a CloudTruth integration

Once created, parameters cannot be converted between secret and standard parameter types.
