Parameter Manager

The Parameter Manager data source provides the capability to retrieve the parameters stored in google cloud along with revealed secrets

Basic examples of usage:

data "googlecompute-parametermanager" "basic-example" {
  project_id = "debian-cloud"
  name       = "packer_test_parameter"
  key        = "packer_test_key"
  version    = "1"
  location   = "us-east1"    
}

# usage example of the data source output
locals {
  value = data.googlecompute-parametermanager.basic-example.value
  payload = data.googlecompute-parametermanager.basic-example.payload
}

Reading key-value pairs from JSON back into a native Packer map can be accomplished with the jsondecode() function.

Reading key-value pairs from YAML back into a native Packer map can be accomplished with the yamldecode() function.
