Getting terraform states

terraform init # creates a .terraform folder with empty states terraform import module.ps-ledger-dist-sit-blue.aws_cloudfront_distribution.monkey XXXXXXXXXXXXXX # module folder > ps ledger name >

Check out main.tf to figure out path

It doesn’t matter how many files are in the folder, these files are collapsed into one file

How to get the state back

terraform import

backend.tf - tells terraform that the state is held remotely
