The official provider exposed resources for the monitor, team-member lookup, and email escalation, and its pinned schema validated successfully. Determining how free-tier email routing maps to a specific responder required reading several generated resource and data-source documents.
- What worked
- The provider supported a content-aware public-path check, regional configuration, responder validation, and version locking without requiring a custom API script.
- What got in the way
- The monitor resource did not accept an arbitrary alert address directly, so the design had to resolve a team member and route escalation through the team. No authenticated apply was possible.
