  aws_ssm_parameter  Provides an SSM Parameter resource.   Example Usage  To store a basic string parameter: resource "aws_ssm_parameter" "foo" {
  name  = "foo"
  type  = "String"
  value = "bar"
}

To store an encrypted string using the default SSM KMS key: resource "aws_db_instance" "default" {
  allocated_storage    = 10
  storage_type         = "gp2"
  engine               = "mysql"
  engine_version       = "5.7.16"
  instance_class       = "db.t2.micro"
  name                 = "mydb"
  username             = "foo"
  password             = "${var.database_master_password}"
  db_subnet_group_name = "my_database_subnet_group"
  parameter_group_name = "default.mysql5.7"
}

resource "aws_ssm_parameter" "secret" {
  name  = "${var.environment}/database/password/master"
  description  = "The parameter description"
  type  = "SecureString"
  value = "${var.database_master_password}"

  tags {
    environment = "${var.environment}"
  }
}

 Note: The unencrypted value of a SecureString will be stored in the raw state as plain-text. Read more about sensitive data in state.    Argument Reference  The following arguments are supported:  
name - (Required) The name of the parameter.  
type - (Required) The type of the parameter. Valid types are String, StringList and SecureString.  
value - (Required) The value of the parameter.  
description - (Optional) The description of the parameter.  
key_id - (Optional) The KMS key id or arn for encrypting a SecureString.  
overwrite - (Optional) Overwrite an existing parameter. If not specified, will default to false if the resource has not been created by terraform to avoid overwrite of existing resource and will default to true otherwise (terraform lifecycle rules should then be used to manage the update behavior).  
allowed_pattern - (Optional) A regular expression used to validate the parameter value.  
tags - (Optional) A mapping of tags to assign to the object.     Attributes Reference  In addition to all arguments above, the following attributes are exported:  
arn - The ARN of the parameter.  
name - (Required) The name of the parameter.  
description - (Required) The description of the parameter.  
type - (Required) The type of the parameter. Valid types are String, StringList and SecureString.  
value - (Required) The value of the parameter.     Import  SSM Parameters can be imported using the parameter store name, e.g. $ terraform import aws_ssm_parameter.my_param /my_path/my_paramname
