create multiple VIPs on F5 using AS3 JSON File and Dynamic Variables

Question

I want to create multiple VIPs using a single piece of code - example dynamic variables in TFVARS.

resources like application name , VIP Name, VIP IP Address, Irule, Profile, Backend Pool should be taken as input in the Tfvars file.

Does anyone have a sample code for the same-

I am using the following .tf file-

================

# Terraform code for AS3
	resource "bigip_as3" "as3-f5-VIPS" {
	as3_json = file("as3.json")
	}

the sample JSON file used by me is as follows-===================================={&nbsp; "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/F5Networks/f5-appsvcs-extension/main/schema/latest/as3-schema.json",&nbsp; "class": "AS3",&nbsp; "action": "deploy",&nbsp; "persist": true,&nbsp; "declaration": {&nbsp; &nbsp; "class": "ADC",&nbsp; &nbsp; "schemaVersion": "3.0.0",&nbsp; &nbsp; "id": "123abc",&nbsp; &nbsp; "label": "Sample AS3-V8 Tenant5",&nbsp; &nbsp; "remark": "HTTPS with predictive-node pool",&nbsp; &nbsp; "Tenant5": {&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "class": "Tenant",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "app1": {&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "class": "Application",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "apitest.abc.com_http": {&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "class": "Service_HTTP",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "remark": "apitest.abc.com_http",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "iRules":[&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; {"bigip":"/Common/New-X-Forwarded-For"}&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ],&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"profileTCP": {"bigip": "/Common/mptcp-mobile-optimized"},&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"virtualAddresses": [&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "192.0.2.11"&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ],&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "serviceAddress": {&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "class": "Service_Address",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "virtualAddress": "192.0.2.11",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "arpEnabled": true,&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "icmpEcho": "enable",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "trafficGroup": "none",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "routeAdvertisement": "disable"&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; },&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "pool": {"bigip": "/Common/Shared/api_pool"}&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; }&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; },&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "app2": {&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "class": "Application", &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "apitest.abc.com_https": {&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "class": "Service_HTTPS",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "remark": "apitest.abc.com_https",&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "profileHTTP": {"bigip": "/Common/http_hsts_xf"},&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "iRules":[&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; {"bigip":"/Common/New-X-Forwarded-For"}&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ],&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"profileTCP": {"bigip": "/Common/mptcp-mobile-optimized"},&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"virtualAddresses": [&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "192.0.2.11"&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ],&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "pool": {"bigip": "/Common/gcpane2ews_443"},&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "serverTLS": {"bigip": "/Common/certsvcgcpandev3.lab-us.gcpint.abc.com"},&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "redirect80": false&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; }&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;}&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;}&nbsp; &nbsp;}}&nbsp; &nbsp;
