Command: add
The terraform add command generates a resource configuration template with
null placeholder values for all attributes, unless the -from-state flag is
used. By default, the template only includes required resource attributes; the
-optional flag tells Terraform to also include any optional attributes.
When terraform add used with the -from-state will not print sensitive
values. You can use terraform show ADDRESS to see all values, including
sensitive values, recorded in state for the given resource address.
Usage
Usage: terraform add [options] ADDRESS
This command requires an address that points to a resource which does not already exist in the configuration. Addresses are in resource addressing format.
This command accepts the following options:
-from-state - populate the template with values from a resource
already in state. Sensitive values are redacted.
-optional - include optional attributes in the template.
-out=FILENAME - writes the template to the given filename. If the file already
exists, the template will be added to the end of the file.
-provider=provider - override the configured provider for the resource. By
default, Terraform will use the configured provider for the given resource type,
and that is the best behavior in most cases.
