    The container on which this deployed runs.
      Public properties
     
     
    automaticDictionary: BOOLEAN = true

    Path to the dictionary containing the output variables. If empty, the dictionary name will be the name of the template concatenated with -dictionary. If you specify a dictionary name, it will be created in the same folder as the target environment or in the folder specified for the new environment. You can also specify a full path starting with 'Environments/'.
     
     
    environmentPath: STRING
    Path to the new environment. If empty, the generated CIs will be added to the target environment. If you specify an environment name, the new environment will be created in the same folder as the target environment. If you specify a folder and an environment name, they will be created in the same folder as the target environment. You can also specify a full path starting with 'Environments/'.
     
     
    generateCIsFromResources: BOOLEAN = true
    If true, XL Deploy will automatically create CIs based on resources that are deployed.

    Set of infrastructure resources mapped to configuration items.
     
     
    inputVariables: MAP_STRING_STRING
    Input variables to be used in the Terraform configuration.
