terraform-search-import

To import existing AWS resources into Terraform, you can automate discovery and bulk import using declarative queries to generate resource and import blocks. This scans existing infrastructure across cloud regions and accounts to bring unmanaged resources under declarative control.

Yes, you can bulk import cloud infrastructure into Terraform without manual coding by automating the discovery and configuration generation process. This approach automatically creates Terraform resource and import blocks, significantly reducing the manual effort required for infrastructure migration.

The best way to migrate legacy AWS environments to Infrastructure as Code is to automate the discovery of existing resources like EC2 instances and S3 buckets. This generates the necessary import configuration to bring unmanaged resources into Terraform state.

Yes, discovering and importing existing cloud resources requires Terraform 1.14+ and provider-specific list resource support. These dependencies are necessary to execute the declarative queries and generate the required configuration for your infrastructure.

Yes, terraform-search-import works with jq for cloud migration auditing alongside Terraform 1.14+. It uses these dependencies to execute queries and generate configuration, applying declarative queries to identify existing cloud resources across regions.

A key limitation of using declarative queries for Terraform import generation is the strict dependency on provider-specific list resource support. Without this provider capability, the automated discovery and bulk import of existing cloud infrastructure cannot execute queries or generate configurations.
