Wildcards in Suppression targetNames

[paulmccrady]

When configuring a suppression in ps-rule.yaml and setting a targetName, is it possible to supply a wildcard?

[BernieWhite]

@paulmccrady No. With the suppression: key wildcards are not supported. You could do this with a suppression group.

See: #1999 (comment)

Instead of endsWith use like or match.

@BernieWhite thankyou. Can you point me in the direction where it describes what 'name', 'type' etc actually relate to in the context of pre-flight and in-flight scans pls ?

[BernieWhite]

@paulmccrady Type or name will be the resource type and resource name. But specifically if you are using the type: or name: expression. The only supported value is . which refers to the current object. So: type: . or name: .

Also you may need to set binding options locally. https://azure.github.io/PSRule.Rules.Azure/customization/enforce-custom-tags/#binding-type
