Integration Steps

Generate the Terraform Script

Once your Tenancy ID is saved, select  Generate Script . It downloads the terraform script. Please create a specific folder eg: Cloudability and save the script in that folder in your local machine. This is done as when you upload the script you cannot individually upload the script – You have to upload the folder which contains the script.

The following is the terraform content used by Cloudability to create required resources:

variable "cloudablity_user_email" {
				description = "This is a variable to assign the email to user. If not provided, default email will be set."
				type        = string
				default     = "cldyuser@cloudability.com"
				}
				 
				resource "oci_identity_user" "cloudablity_user" {
				compartment_id = "ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa4pjpasfply4eky7dl6msfdt3doqpfpmbuw2aesigtvedd4oxhufa"
				description = "This is a Cloudability user and they will be accessing cost data from your tenant."
				name = "CloudabilityDataCollector_User"
				freeform_tags = {
				"User_Created_For"= "Cloudability"
				}
				}
				 
				resource "oci_identity_group" "cloudability_group" {
				compartment_id = "ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa4pjpasfply4eky7dl6msfdt3doqpfpmbuw2aesigtvedd4oxhufa"
				description = "This is a Cloudability group and it will be accessing cost data from your tenant."
				name = "CloudabilityDataCollector_Group"
				freeform_tags = {
				"Group_Created_For"= "Cloudability"
				}
				}
				 
				resource "oci_identity_user_group_membership" "user_group_membership" {
				group_id = oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.id
				user_id = oci_identity_user.cloudablity_user.id
				}
				 
				resource "oci_identity_policy" "cloudability_policy" {
				compartment_id = "ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa4pjpasfply4eky7dl6msfdt3doqpfpmbuw2aesigtvedd4oxhufa"
				description = "This policy will retrieve permissions to access the cost report and list policy."
				name = "CloudabilityCostDataReaderPolicy"
				freeform_tags = {
				"Policy_Created_For"= "Cloudability"
				}
				statements = [
				"define tenancy reporting as ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaaned4fkpkisbwjlr56u7cj63lf3wffbilvqknstgtvzub7vhqkggq",
				"endorse group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read objects in tenancy reporting",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read organizations-tenancy in tenancy",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read organizations-family in tenancy",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read policies in tenancy",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read metrics in tenancy",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read rate-cards in tenancy",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read instance-images in tenancy",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to inspect instances in tenancy",
				"allow group ${oci_identity_group.cloudability_group.name} to read instance-family in tenancy"
				]
		}

The Resource Manager will validate the provided Terraform file and create a new stack.

Monitor the job status (lifecycle state) by getting the job. Succeeded indicates the job is complete.

This job will create a User, a Group and a Policy. The operation can take some time depending on the complexity of the job. While the job runs, or after it is completed, you will get the job logs content.

Once the stack is created, you can see it in the Stacks section.

If the information is correctly verified, a green check mark appears under Billing Reports .A green check mark will appear under the Advanced Features as well but only for the root tenancy.

It may take up to 24 hours to get your OCI cost data in Cloudability. Once you see your OCI data, you can proceed to update your tags and business mappings - you can learn more about this in the Apptio Community Post .

Step 3 - In Cloudability - Adding Credentials for your child tenancies

Once your credentials are verified, your child tenancies will be automatically discovered by Cloudability and displayed in the UI. Hover over the 3 dots on the right side of your child tenancy and select the “pencil” button.

Then, you can start credentialing your child tenancies, following the same process described above for parent tenancies.

Once your credentials are verified, it will take up to 48 hours to get your utilization data in Cloudability and start receiving rightsizing recommendations.

Permission List

You can find below the list of permissions displayed in OCI credential details. Some of them are applicable only to the Parent Account/ Tenancy, and not to the Child Account/ Tenancy (“oci.get.costReports”, “oci.list.tenancies”, and “oci.list.rateCards”).
