Description

Following the introduction of express step functions as described in this blog post and documented here can support be added to the existing resource for this new capability.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_sfn_state_machine

Potential Terraform Configuration

type would default to Standard to make this a non breaking change.

resource "aws_sfn_state_machine" "sfn_state_machine" {
  name     = "my-state-machine"
  role_arn = aws_iam_role.iam_for_sfn.arn
  type     = "Express"
  definition = <<EOF
{
  "Comment": "A Hello World example of the Amazon States Language using an AWS Lambda Function",
  "StartAt": "HelloWorld",
  "States": {
    "HelloWorld": {
      "Type": "Task",
      "Resource": aws_lambda_function.lambda.arn,
      "End": true
    }
  }
}
EOF
}
