Selecting VPC and subnets
This use case allows your end-users to select an existing VPC and subnet, for example, to deploy new resources. The goal is to conveniently propose VPC and subnet options to the end-users.
Of course, the mechanisms shown in this section can be applied to many others use cases.
There are different ways to get the VPC and subnet options:
- From the Cycloid Asset Inventory if the networking resources have been previously deployed with Cycloid platform and therefore they are visible in the Cycloid Asset Inventory.
- Using static data from an API endpoint to get the options using an external API. This would be typically a cloud storage bucket where static website hosting is enabled.
- Using dynamic data from an API endpoint for maximum flexibility and customization. This use case is technically advanced and requires programming language skills, for example to build functions.
