Cloud Configuration

The main module of an OpenTofu configuration can integrate with a cloud backend to enable its CLI-driven run workflow (if supported by your cloud backend). You only need to configure these settings when you want to use OpenTofu CLI to interact with a cloud backend. A cloud backend ignores them when interacting with OpenTofu through version control or the API.

Usage Example​

To configure the cloud CLI integration, add a nested cloud block within the terraform block. You cannot use the CLI integration and a state backend in the same configuration.

Refer to Using the Cloud Backend in the OpenTofu CLI documentation for full configuration details, migration instructions, and command line arguments.

Code Block
terraform {
  cloud {
    organization = "example_corp"
    hostname = "app.example.io"

    workspaces {
      tags = ["app"]
    }
  }
}
