TFC Agent Limitations confusion

assareh opened this issue · 1 comments

Hi folks, this issue pertains to https://www.terraform.io/docs/cloud/agents/index.html#limitations.

I have a client that interpreted our documentation to mean that tfc-agent was incompatible with a private VCS. As a user of a private VCS, they believed they would not be able to use agents at all.

I would like to suggest we alter/enhance the wording to make it clear that an agent is compatible with these other configurations if that is indeed the case.

For example perhaps something like:

Limitations

Agents are designed to allow you to run Terraform operations from a Terraform Cloud workspace on your private infrastructure. The following use cases are not provided by agents:

  • Connecting Terraform Cloud workspaces to private VCS repositories
  • Connecting to private infrastructure from Sentinel policies using the http import

For these use cases, we recommend you leverage the information provided by the IP Ranges documentation to permit direct communication from the appropriate Terraform Cloud service to your internal infrastructure. Agents are fully compatible with these use cases.

Organizations are limited to 20 pools each.

Hello! I believe this was recently resolved with this PR: #1806. So I'm going to close this out. But please let me know if you have additional comments or suggestions!
