Question

Hi there, I had an issue related to a source which is supported by community. I wanted to connect quick books which is available as an community only supported source. Now I want to use terraform to generate that connector. I create the source using the UI of my OSS build and retrieve it using api for demonstration purposes: (Quickbook is only supported in OSS and hence a connector has not been generated )

Do help me understand how I can use terraform to write this automatically…

            "sourceId": "2b953b45-341f-445d-8e15-28d115a8500c",
            "name": "QuickBooks",
            "sourceType": "quickbooks",
            "workspaceId": "4c882d54-a6a7-459a-b617-aa6fff9a46f3",
            "configuration": {

                "start_date": "2024-06-01T00:00:00Z",
                "credentials": {

                    "client_id": "ABRSwH6l9FdVhteCHqm5ais6dKsJGa4UKCjIPci6NNc18i9nsO",

                }
            }
        }```
