Currently, the Ansible Terraform Provider supports triggering only individual job templates, but there is no support for triggering workflow job templates. This limitation poses challenges in scenarios where workflows are designed to orchestrate multiple job templates or manage complex automation pipelines.

Current Challenges

1. Defining multiple job_template resources in Terraform leads to verbose configurations that are harder to manage and maintain.
2. Monitoring the status of individual job templates separately is cumbersome and prone to errors.

Proposed Solution

1. Extend the Ansible Terraform Provider to support the triggering of workflow job templates.
2. Introduce a new resource (e.g., ansible_workflow_job_template) or enhance the existing ansible_job_template resource to handle workflows.
3. Allow users to specify a single workflow job template ID, which Terraform can use to trigger and monitor the entire workflow.

Benefit -

1. Single Template for Monitoring:
2. Simplified Resource Management: by defining single workflow_job_template.
3. Improved Scalability: For large-scale automation, workflows provide a centralized way to trigger and manage sequences of tasks, which is not feasible with individual job templates.
