## Manage this integration with Terraform

Connections for this integration can be managed as code with the [Relyance Terraform provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/Relyance/relyance/latest). Non-secret fields go in `auth.params`; secret fields go in `auth.secrets_wo`, which is write-only — never stored in Terraform state. Rotate secrets by bumping `auth.secrets_wo_version`.

```hcl
resource "relyance_integration_connection" "kentik" {
  vendor = "kentik"
  name   = "<your connection name>"

  auth = {
    method = "api-key"
    params = {
      email = "<email>"
      data_storage_location = "us"
    }
    # Secret fields are write-only: sent to Relyance, never stored in state.
    secrets_wo = {
      api_key = var.kentik_api_key
    }
    secrets_wo_version = 1
  }

  scans = { "property-inspection" = { enabled = true } }
}
```
