In addition to all arguments above, the following attributes are exported:

Explanation in Terraform Registry

Provides an Amazon Connect Contact Flow resource. For more information see Amazon Connect: Getting Started This resource embeds or references Contact Flows specified in Amazon Connect Contact Flow Language. For more information see Amazon Connect Flow language !> WARN: Contact Flows exported from the Console Contact Flow import/export are not in the Amazon Connect Contact Flow Language and can not be used with this resource. Instead, the recommendation is to use the AWS CLI describe-contact-flow. See example below which uses jq to extract the Content attribute and saves it to a local file.

NOTE: Due to The behaviour of Amazon Connect you cannot delete contact flows. The recommendation is to prefix the Contact Flow with zzTrash_ to get obsolete contact flows out of the way.
