Terraform Variable

The Terraform Variable tab allows you to specify and manage module variables required by Terraform configurations for precise customization. Variables can be defined per workspace to tailor deployments to your cloud environment.

Overview

You can add, edit, or remove key-value pairs representing Terraform variables. These variables are passed to your module during execution to configure infrastructure resources dynamically.

AWS Example

When using AWS as your target environment, typical variables may include:

Key	Description	Example Value
bucket_name	Name of the S3 bucket to create or manage	test1
region	AWS region for resource deployment	us-east-1
environment	Environment label (e.g., dev, prod)	dev
owner	Owner or responsible team	ms

GCP Example

When using GCP as your target environment, variables typically include project and network configuration:

Key	Description	Example Value
project_id	GCP project identifier	atmosly-439606
region	GCP region for deployment	us-central1
network_name	Name of the VPC network	my-custom-vpc-ms
subnet_name	Subnet name within the VPC	my-subnet-ms
subnet_ip	Subnet IP range	10.0.1.0/24

Managing Variables

1. Navigate to Workspace Details > Terraform Variable.
2. Click the pencil icon next to any variable to edit its value.
3. To delete a variable, click the trash icon.
4. Use the Add Variable button (if available) to define new key-value pairs.
5. Click Save to apply changes.

Tip: Ensure variable names match those expected in your Terraform modules to avoid configuration errors during deployment.
