Correct one EC2 application load balancer if unused

Overview

Amazon EC2 application load balancers with no targets attached still cost money and should be deleted.

This pipeline allows you to specify a collection of EC2 application load balancers and either sends notifications or attempts to perform predefined corrective actions upon the collection.

Whilst it is possible to utilize this pipeline standalone, it is usually called from the correct_one_ec2_application_load_balancer_if_unused pipeline.

Run the pipeline

To run this pipeline from your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run aws_thrifty.pipeline.correct_one_ec2_application_load_balancer_if_unused \
--arg 'title=<string>' \
--arg 'arn=<string>' \
--arg 'region=<string>' \
--arg 'cred=<string>'

Use this pipeline

To call this pipeline from your pipeline, use a step:

step "pipeline" "step_name" {
pipeline = aws_thrifty.pipeline.correct_one_ec2_application_load_balancer_if_unused
args = {
title = <string>
arn = <string>
region = <string>
cred = <string>
}
}
