The `consul` block is used to configure Consul-Terraform-Sync connection with a Consul agent to perform queries to the Consul Catalog and Consul KV pertaining to task execution.
|
||||
|
||||
-> **Note:** Use HTTP/2 to improve Consul-Terraform-Sync performance when communicating with the local Consul process. [TLS/HTTPS](/docs/agent/options) must be configured for the local Consul with the [cert_file](/docs/agent/options#cert_file) and [key_file](/docs/agent/options#key_file) parameters set. For the Consul-Terraform-Sync configuration, set `tls.enabled = true` and set the `address` parameter to the HTTPS URL, e.g., `address = example.consul.com:8501`. If using self-signed certificates for Consul, you will also need to set `tls.verify = false`.

- `tls` - Configure TLS to use a secure client connection with Consul. Using HTTP/2 can solve issues related to hitting Consul's maximum connection limits, as well as improve efficiency when processing many blocking queries. This option is required for Consul-Terraform-Sync when connecting to a [Consul agent with TLS verification enabled for HTTPS connections](/docs/agent/options#verify_incoming).

- `enabled` - (bool) Enable TLS. Specifying any option for TLS will also enable it.

- `verify` - (bool: true) Enables TLS peer verification. The default is enabled, which will check the global CA chain to make sure the given certificates are valid. If you are using a self-signed certificate that you have not added to the CA chain, you may want to disable SSL verification. However, please understand this is a potential security vulnerability.

- If Consul is using a self-signed certificate that you have not added to the global CA chain, you can set this certificate with `ca_cert` or `ca_path`. Alternatively, you can disable SSL verification by setting `verify` to false. However, disabling verification is a potential security vulnerability.
