Variables and Outputs

The Terraform language includes a few kinds of blocks for requesting or publishing named values.

• Input Variables serve as parameters for a Terraform module, so users can customize behavior without editing the source.

• Output Values are like return values for a Terraform module.

• Local Values are a convenience feature for assigning a short name to an expression.
