Linking Resources

How to link Resources?

Linking resources refers to establishing connections between different resources, enabling them to interact and share information with each other.

In this example, we will be linking a Postgres resource to a Service resource using Environment Variables.

First, ensure you have both a Service and a Postgres resource created within your Blueprint.
Navigate to the Blueprint tab and select the Service resource you want to connect to the Postgres resource.
Select Configure in the drop-down.
Select Environment Variables from the left pane and click Add Environment Variables.
In the pop-up that appears, select Resource Reference.
Now, select the corresponding Postgres database, enter the Key and select the required Value.
Click Save.

You have successfully linked a Service resource with a Postgres database.

In this example, we will be linking a Service resource to an Ingress resource using Ingress Rules.

First, ensure you have both a Service and an Ingress resource created within your Blueprint.
Navigate to the Blueprint tab and select the Ingress resource you want to connect to the Service resource.
Select Configure from the drop-down.
In the Form mode, under Ingress Rules, click Add New Entry.
Mention the Service Name, Path, and Port.
Click Save Changes.

You have successfully linked a Service resource with an Ingress resource.
