Using Terraform to Automate Currency Rates into BigQuery

1. Checkout the code from our Github repo

2. Update the “backend.tf” to use an existing remote bucket in GCS. This allows you to migrate it to a CI/CD pipeline in the future, rather than storing the state on your local machine.

3. Signup for a free plan from OpenExchangeRates and generate an ‘App ID’

4. Update the “variables.tf” with your GCP Project-Id, and OpenExchangeRate App-ID

5. Run Terraform

cd terraform
terraform init
terraform apply
