Technical requirements
To follow along with the hands-on material in this chapter, you will need to follow the steps in the previous chapter or access the resources from that chapter and refer back to it if anything is unclear. You will also need to do the following:
- You must create a new private repository under your organization,
FinOps.GitHub, that has been initialized with areadmefile. - You will need to create a short-term classic personal access token that has access to query the organization you’ve created. It will need the scope of
repoandread:organd store that as a secret with a name ofREPOSITORY_ADMIN_PATtoFinOps.GitHub. - You’ll also need to create a new Slack Webhook for a new channel called
github-finops, which will then be saved as a secret namedFINOPS_SLACK_CHANNELunder the newly created repository.
We will be walking through the process of creating everything else in this chapter.
