Terraform-Associate-003 Exam Dumps - HashiCorp Certified: Terraform Associate (003) (HCTA0-003)

Detailed Explanation:

Rationale for Correct Answer (B):Terraform interacts with external systems through providers. Since this is a new proprietary service with its own API, Terraform does not support it by default. You would need to develop a custom provider that implements Terraform’s provider interface and interacts with the proprietary APIs to manage resources like users.

Analysis of Incorrect Option:

A. Any service hosted on a public cloud provider: Not true. Terraform can only manage services that have providers (official or custom). Just being "hosted on a public cloud" doesn’t guarantee Terraform support.

Key Concept:Terraform providers act as the bridge between Terraform and external APIs. For unsupported services, a custom provider must be developed.

Referencing Terraform Built-in Functions:

✅chomp: removes trailing newlines

✅join: combines list into string

✅split: splits string into list

❌slice:is nota valid Terraform string function (it's used in other languages like Python)

This command will upgrade the plugins to the latest acceptable version within the version constraints specified in the configuration. The other commands do not have an -upgrade option.

 To tell Terraform to stop managing a specific resource without destroying it, you can use the terraform state rm command. This command will remove the resource from the Terraform state, which means that Terraform will no longer track or update the corresponding remote object. However, the object will still exist in the remote system and you can later use terraform import to start managing it again in a different configuration or workspace. The syntax for this command is terraform state rm <address>, where <address> is the resource address that identifies the resource instance to remove. For example, terraform state rm aws_instance.ubuntu[1] will remove the second instance of the aws_instance resource named ubuntu from the state. References = : Command: state rm : Moving Resources

Terraform Cloud includes several features designed to enhance collaboration and infrastructure management. Two of these features are:

A web-based user interface (UI): This allows users to interact with Terraform Cloud through a browser, providing a centralized interface for managing Terraform configurations, state files, and workspaces.

Remote state storage: This feature enables users to store their Terraform state files remotely in Terraform Cloud, ensuring that state is safely backed up and can be accessed by team members as needed.
