WalkthroughThe PR adds a Terraform provider guide, updates Terraform configuration guidance, and adds Terraform provider references to API and SDK documentation. ChangesTerraform provider documentation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~30 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The PR adds Terraform guidance, but the current guide still shows a client secret being entered on the command line and includes workflow instructions that can apply unintended configuration while overstating rollback behavior. Users could leak credentials or make unsafe changes, so the PR is not merge-ready until these instructions are corrected; provider pinning and resource ownership also need follow-up.

In `@src/content/docs/developer-tools/guides/manage-kinde-configuration.mdx`:
- Line 425: Update the Terraform options guidance to define ownership clearly:
Terraform owns applications, APIs, roles, and permissions, while the seed script
is limited to unsupported settings such as environment variables, feature flags,
and API scopes. Apply this clarification consistently in the combined-management
guidance and the corresponding Option 1 section.
In `@src/content/docs/developer-tools/guides/terraform-provider.mdx`:
- Around line 429-430: Update the Terraform workflow steps so the plan command
saves its output to a plan file, and the apply command consumes that exact saved
plan instead of recalculating it; configure required reviewers for the prod
environment on the apply job or environment.
- Line 127: Update the Terraform provider version constraint in the documented
configuration from ~> 0.1 to ~> 0.1.0 so only patch updates within the 0.1
minor release are permitted.
- Line 363: Update the failed-creates documentation to state that rollback is
best effort and scoped to the resource: kinde_organization_user attempts to
remove a membership when role assignment fails, while kinde_user_role failures
do not undo an already-created membership. Advise users to run terraform plan
after an apply error before resuming or destroying remaining resources.
In `@src/data/sdkList.ts`:
- Around line 180-186: Update the Terraform entry in sdkList.ts to use the same
category as the Terraform entry in our-sdks.mdx, replacing the inconsistent
"Back end" type with the shared category value so both SDK surfaces place
Terraform in the same section.

Use the same Terraform category across SDK surfaces.
src/content/docs/developer-tools/about/our-sdks.mdx places Terraform under Other, but this entry sets type to "Back end". If sdkList.ts drives the SDK grid or filters, Terraform will appear in different sections. Set both surfaces to the same category.

Good work, only complemented 2 CR comments. Although all CR needs to be addressed still. 📓

- Line 76: Update the prose descriptions to hyphenate the compound modifiers:
use “machine-to-machine” at both referenced occurrences, and “back-end” and
“single-page” at the additional occurrence.
- Around line 114-118: Update the Terraform provider authentication example to
avoid placing KINDE_CLIENT_SECRET in a pasted shell command. Keep the non-secret
environment variables, and direct users to secret-manager or CI injection; for
local usage, provide a method that reads the secret without exposing it on the
command line.

| Manage your Kinde business as code — applications, APIs, connections, organizations, users, roles, and permissions — with the [Kinde Terraform provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/kinde-oss/kinde/latest) ([source on GitHub](https://github.com/kinde-oss/terraform-provider-kinde)). | ||

| Add the provider to your configuration, then initialize the working directory. |

Number it 1. even if it's the only step. Mention which config file they are going to edit (versions.tf)
e.g., Add the provider to your configuration file versions.tf, then initialize the working directory.
Indent the code after adding a number to this step.
|
|
||
| ### 3. Configure authentication | ||
|
|
||
| Export your M2M credentials as environment variables. Include the `https://` scheme in the domain. The audience is your domain followed by `/api`. |

Same as above, number this step: 1. Can further the step by wording it like this: "Export your M2M credential with the following terminal command.."
| ``` | ||

| ### 4. Create a permission and a role | ||

Add some connective tissue to this step so it's not just a bare code block so there is some structure, like:
- Add the following code to
main.tfto run your main code.
Also indent the code block like others when inside a numbered step.
| } | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### 5. Apply |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Rename this step to something like "Run the code", instead of a one word "Apply"
Same as before, add some connective tissue, describe what to do, even just a once simple step.

| ## Manage applications |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Looks like it creates an application, so name the heading something like: "Create an application"
Since it acts like a mini tutorial, mention the scopes they should enable to make this work.
| } | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Application `type` is one of `reg` (back-end web app), `spa` (single-page app), or `m2m` (machine-to-machine). Changing `name` or `type` forces a replacement, which issues a new client ID and secret — the URIs are updatable in place. |

We can make the types quickly scannable by formatting in bullet list like this:
Application types:
regback-end web appspasingle-page appm2mmachine-to-machine

|
||
| ## Add users to organizations and assign roles | ||
|
|
||
| Memberships and role assignments are separate resources. Because a role can only be assigned to a user who is already a member of the organization, declare the ordering with `depends_on`. |
