💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'terraform plan' instead of 'terraform apply'.

Using 'terraform init' which only initializes the working directory.

The terraform apply command executes the changes required to reach the desired state of the configuration.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '-refresh=false' which disables state refresh but does not skip approval.

Using '-var-file' which specifies variable files but does not skip approval.

The -auto-approve flag skips the interactive approval step and applies changes immediately.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '-var' which expects a key=value pair, not a file.

Using '-auto-approve' which skips approval but does not specify variable files.

The -var-file flag is used to specify a file containing variable values.

Common Mistakes

Putting the plan file after the flags.

Using '-refresh=true' which refreshes state but does not skip approval or disable locking.

Mixing up the order of flags.

Use -var-file to specify variables, -auto-approve to skip confirmation, and -lock=false to disable state locking.
