FAQPage Schema

How do I set up a new infrastructure project in HCP Terraform from scratch?▼

To set up a new infrastructure project in HCP Terraform, you need to create the organization, configure projects and workspaces, integrate your VCS, define variables, and execute the initial deployment. This process is automated to guide you through each step securely.

Can I use CLI-driven workflows instead of VCS-driven workflows for HCP Terraform greenfield deployments?▼

Yes, greenfield deployments in HCP Terraform support both VCS-driven and CLI-driven workflows. You can choose your preferred method for workspace creation and infrastructure deployment while ensuring secure credential management across either approach.

What is the best way to manage cloud provider credentials when creating a new HCP Terraform workspace?▼

The best way to manage cloud provider credentials for a new HCP Terraform workspace is to securely configure them as workspace variables. This approach emphasizes secure credential management and follows best practices for greenfield environments.

Does this infrastructure as code setup support connecting workspaces to version control systems?▼

Yes, the infrastructure as code setup facilitates VCS integration by connecting your HCP Terraform workspaces directly to your version control systems. This enables automated Terraform plans triggered by code changes.

What are the limitations of automating greenfield infrastructure deployments with Terraform?▼

Automating greenfield infrastructure deployments with Terraform is limited to entirely new project setups, meaning it is not designed for importing or managing pre-existing infrastructure resources outside of the initial creation and deployment process.
