Policy sets API

Policy Enforcement lets you use the policy-as-code frameworks Sentinel and Open Policy Agent (OPA) to apply policy checks to HCP Terraform workspaces.

Policy sets are collections of policies that you can apply globally or to specificprojects and workspaces. For each run in the selected workspaces, HCP Terraform checks the Terraform plan against the policy set.

This API provides endpoints to create, read, update, and delete policy sets in an HCP Terraform organization. To view and manage individual policies, use thePolicies API.

Many of these endpoints let you create policy sets from a designated repository in a Version Control System (VCS). For more information about how to configure a policy set VCS repository, refer toSentinel Policy Set VCS Repositories andOPA Policy Set VCS Repositories.

Instead of connecting HCP Terraform to a VCS repository, you can use the thePolicy Set Versions endpoint to create an entire policy set from atar.gz file.

Interacting with policy sets requires permission to manage policies. (More about permissions.)

Create a policy set

POST /organizations/:organization_name/policy-sets

Parameter	Description
`:organization_name`	The organization to create the policy set in. The organization must already exist in the system, and the token authenticating the API request must have permission to manage policies. (More about permissions.)

Status	Response	Reason
201	JSON API document (`type: "policy-sets"`)	Successfully created a policy set
404	JSON API error object	Organization not found, or user unauthorized to perform action
422	JSON API error object	Malformed request body (missing attributes, wrong types, etc.)

Request Body

This POST endpoint requires a JSON object with the following properties as a request payload.

Properties without a default value are required.

Key path	Type	Default	Description
`data.type`	string		Must be`"policy-sets"`.
`data.attributes.name`	string		The name of the policy set. Can include letters, numbers,`-`, and`_`.
`data.attributes.description`	string	`null`	Text describing the policy set's purpose. This field supports Markdown and appears in the HCP Terraform UI.
`data.attributes.global`	boolean	`false`	Whether HCP Terraform should automatically apply this policy set to all of an organization's workspaces.
`data.attributes.kind`	string	`sentinel`	The policy-as-code framework associated with the policy. Valid values are`sentinel` and`opa`.
`data.attributes.overridable`	boolean	`false`	Whether or not users can override this policy when it fails during a run. Valid for sentinel policies only if`agent-enabled` is set to`true`.
`data.attributes.vcs-repo`	object	`null`	VCS repository information. When present, HCP Terraform sources the policies and configuration from the specified VCS repository. This attribute and`policies` relationships are mutually exclusive, and you cannot use them simultaneously.
`data.attributes.vcs-repo.branch`	string	`null`	The branch of the VCS repository where HCP Terraform should retrieve the policy set. If empty, HCP Terraform uses the default branch.
`data.attributes.vcs-repo.identifier`	string		The VCS repository identifier in the format`<namespace>/<repo>`. For example,`hashicorp/my-policy-set`. The format for Azure DevOps is`<org>/<project>/_git/<repo>`.
`data.attributes.vcs-repo.oauth-token-id`	string		The OAuth Token ID HCP Terraform should use to connect to the VCS host. This value must not be specified if`github-app-installation-id` is specified.
`data.attributes.vcs-repo.github-app-installation-id`	string		The VCS Connection GitHub App Installation to use. Find this ID on the account settings page. Requires previously authorizing the GitHub App and generating a user-to-server token. Manage the token fromAccount Settings within HCP Terraform. You can not specify this value if`oauth-token-id` is specified.
`data.attributes.vcs-repo.ingress-submodules`	boolean	`false`	Whether HCP Terraform should instantiate repository submodules when retrieving the policy set.
`data.attributes.policies-path`	string	`null`	The VCS repository subdirectory that contains the policies for this policy set. HCP Terraform ignores files and directories outside of this sub-path and does not update the policy set when those files change. This attribute is only valid when you specify a VCS repository for the policy set.
`data.relationships.projects.data[]`	array[object]	`[]`	A list of resource identifier objects that defines which projects are associated with the policy set. These objects must contain`id` and`type` properties, and the`type` property must be`projects`. For example,`{ "id": "prj-AwfuCJTkdai4xj9w", "type": "projects" }`. You can only specify this attribute when`data.attributes.global` is`false`.
`data.relationships.workspaces.data[]`	array[object]	`[]`	A list of resource identifier objects that defines which workspaces are associated with the policy set. These objects must contain`id` and`type` properties, and the`type` property must be`workspaces`. For example,`{ "id": "ws-2HRvNs49EWPjDqT1", "type": "workspaces" }`. Obtain workspace IDs from theworkspace's settings page or theShow Workspace endpoint. You can only specify this attribute when`data.attributes.global` is`false`.
`data.relationships.workspace-exclusions.data[]`	array[object]	`[]`	A list of resource identifier objects specifying which workspaces HCP Terraform excludes from a policy set's enforcement. These objects must contain`id` and`type` properties, and the`type` property must be`workspaces`. For example,`{ "id": "ws-FVVvzCDaykN1oHiw", "type": "workspaces" }`.
`data.relationships.policies.data[]`	array[object]	`[]`	A list of resource identifier objects that defines which policies are members of the policy set. These objects must contain`id` and`type` properties, and the`type` property must be`policies`. For example,`{ "id": "pol-u3S5p2Uwk21keu1s", "type": "policies" }`.
`data.attributes.agent-enabled`(beta)	boolean	`false`	Only valid for`sentinel` policy sets. Whether this policy set should run as a policy evaluation in the HCP Terraform agent.
`data.attributes.policy-tool-version`(beta)	string	`latest`	The version of the tool that HCP Terraform uses to evaluate policies. You can only set a policy tool version for 'sentinel' policy sets if`agent-enabled` is`true`.

Update a policy set

PATCH /policy-sets/:id

Parameter	Description
`:id`	The ID of the policy set to update. Refer toList Policy Sets for reference information about finding IDs.

Status	Response	Reason
200	JSON API document (`type: "policy-sets"`)	The request was successful
404	JSON API error object	Policy set not found or user unauthorized to perform action
422	JSON API error object	Malformed request body (missing attributes, wrong types, etc.)

Request Body

This PATCH endpoint requires a JSON object with the following properties as a request payload.

Properties without a default value are required.

Key path	Type	Default	Description
`data.type`	string		Must be`"policy-sets"`.
`data.attributes.name`	string	(previous value)	The name of the policy set. Can include letters, numbers,`-`, and`_`.

`data.relationships.workspaces`	array[object]	(previous value)	An array of references to workspaces that the policy set should be assigned to. Sending an empty array clears all workspace assignments. You can only specify this attribute when`data.attributes.global` is`false`.
`data.relationships.workspace-exclusions`	array[object]	(previous value)	An array of references to excluded workspaces that HCP Terraform will not enforce this policy set upon. Sending an empty array clears all exclusions assignments.
`data.attributes.agent-enabled`(beta)	boolean	`false`	Only valid for`sentinel` policy sets. Whether this policy set should run as a policy evaluation in the HCP Terraform agent.
`data.attributes.policy-tool-version`(beta)	string	`latest`	The version of the tool that HCP Terraform uses to evaluate policies. You can only set a policy tool version for 'sentinel' policy sets if`agent-enabled` is`true`.
