      Custom automations with Python

      Add your own automations or modify existing ones

      Automations are written in Python3, each one is a self-contained Python (.py) file.

      Pre-built automation Python files can be found here:

      To add a new automation:

      1. Add a new .py file
      2. Implement the hyperglance_automation() function with logic for your automation.
      3. Implement the info() function to inform the Hyperglance UI about your automation:
        1. Name,
        2. Description,
        3. Any UI inputs it needs from the user,
        4. A list of compatible resource types.
        5. Any IAM permissions that it needs granted.
      4. Re-deploy the terraform stack with terraform apply
      5. Done: Your new automation will be immediately available and ready to use in the Hyperglance UI.
