Inspect state
Terraform includes some commands for reading and updating state without taking any other actions.
The
terraform state list
command shows the resource addresses for every resource Terraform knows about in a configuration, optionally filtered by partial resource address.The
terraform state show
command displays detailed state data about one resource.The
terraform refresh
command updates state data to match the real-world condition of the managed resources. This is done automatically during plans and applies, but not when interacting with state directly.
