Description

In contrast to the Azure Portal, azurerm_redis_cache does not expose a Primary connection string attribute. My use case would be to directly inject the connection string into Azure Key Vault.

Please be aware, that this Primary connection string seems to be specifically dedicated to the StackExchange.Redis .NET library, so let's consider that vendor-specific attribute for the discussion!

My current workaround is building this connection string by myself:

resource "azurerm_key_vault_secret" "redis_cache_connection_string" {
  name         = "RedisCacheConnectionString"
  value        = "${azurerm_redis_cache.default.hostname}:${azurerm_redis_cache.default.ssl_port},password=${azurerm_redis_cache.default.primary_access_key},ssl=True,abortConnect=False"
  key_vault_id = azurerm_key_vault.default.id
}
