[Feature Request] Support for Creating Scheduled Workflows

[dahlke]

It would be great if it were possible to create scheduled workflows using the Terraform Provider.

I'm fairly interested in this as well. It looks like schedules don't belong to the CloudOperationsClient though and belong to the workflows Client, which means that you would need to authenticate to a specific namespace in order to manipulate schedules, rather than using an account-level API key.

This seems pretty hard to accomplish given how the terraform provider is currently setup. Are there any plans to add schedule manipulation to the cloud operations API?

Also interested.
In my scenario schedules are used to run workflows on a regular basis. The workflows coordinate the upload and processing of data streams. The plan is to use a gitops like approach and have all the schedules defined and managed in git and terraform would be a good mechanism to use to keep the Temporal schedules in-sync with the git definitions. Appreciate it can be done via scripts and CLI/SDK but Terraform would be a good fit.

Also interested!

I see an unofficial resource for it at https://github.com/PGBI/terraform-provider-temporal/ but I would like to see an official offering for this if possible, thank you!

Reaching out to our Temporal CSM; this is pretty important from an audit perspective if all infra changes are done through IaC and trackable.

@thecjharries Did you get anywhere reaching our to your Temporal CSM? I reached out to ours and he pointed me towards this thread but also said "Definitely something that is being worked on". Curious if you have gotten any traction with it.

We have this kind of annoying bespoke setup where we have a Workflow that runs daily to upsert our scheduled workflows to try to stay in sync but Terraform is such a better fix.

[thecjharries]

I have received nothing. It’s still an open annoyance for audits.

[pablosilveir4]

any update on this?

[thecjharries]

I still have not received an update. I'll ping my Temporal CSM again.

My team has done some Pulumi generation to manage this ourselves. I can probably throw that in a gist if that's useful for anyone else.
