Rate policy action

akamai_appsec_rate_policy_action

Creates, modifies, or deletes the actions associated with a rate policy. By default, rate policies take no action when triggered.

Note that you must set separate actions for requests originating from an IPv4 IP address and for requests originating from an IPv6 address.

Scopes: Rate policy

Example

terraform {
  required_providers {
    akamai = {
      source = "akamai/akamai"
    }
  }
}

provider "akamai" {
  edgerc = "~/.edgerc"
}
// USE CASE: User wants to create a rate policy and rate policy actions for a security configuration.

data "akamai_appsec_configuration" "configuration" {
  name = "Documentation"
}
resource "akamai_appsec_rate_policy" "appsec_rate_policy" {
  config_id   = data.akamai_appsec_configuration.configuration.config_id
  rate_policy = file("${path.module}/rate_policy.json")
}
resource "akamai_appsec_rate_policy_action" "appsec_rate_policy_action" {
  config_id          = data.akamai_appsec_configuration.configuration.config_id
  security_policy_id = "gms1_134637"
  rate_policy_id     = akamai_appsec_rate_policy.appsec_rate_policy.rate_policy_id
  ipv4_action        = "deny"
  ipv6_action        = "deny"
}
