Automate configuration to index and scan all builds using Jfrog Terraform Artifactory and Xray providers

[PiyushJonnie]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Not all builds are added to be indexed and scanned automatically.

Describe the solution you'd like
For all builds to be indexed, we have to go to Build --> Manage Builds --> and add "*/**" for 'Build Name Include Pattern" manually. Hence need to automate this configuration using the Jfrog Terraform Artifactory and Xray providers

Describe alternatives you've considered
Need to perform the steps manually : go to Build --> Manage Builds --> and add "*/**" for 'Build Name Include Pattern"

@PiyushJonnie, thank you for the ticket!
Xray API doesn't have a feature to add builds to indexing config by pattern, per official documentation.

This functionality is supported only in the UI.

Also, I found that you can add non-existing builds to the indexing configuration with API call. Then you'll get an error in the UI when trying to edit the list of indexed builds. An internal ticket was created.
Currently, we can only add functionality to add builds as a list. Users will have to know the names of each build added to the indexing configuration. In some cases, it will be tedious.
@alexhung, what do you think?

@danielmkn and @alexhung - Even i am facing the same issue.. i need to add the build pattern in indexed resource under xray settings. Is there any work around or update on this issue?

[alexhung]

@SudhirmkGit Currently there's no workaround for this issue. I'd encourage you to open a support ticket and request adding pattern to the existing API. Once that's added, then we can implement the feature in the provider.

We have a need for this feature also. Setting up a watch all-builds with a specific build pattern makes no difference in behavior. One would think setting up a xray watch on a resource would trigger enabling xray indexing of the resource.
