     9  # Resource Addressing
    10  
    11  The `terraform state` subcommands make heavy use of resource addressing
    12  for targeting and filtering specific resources and modules within the state.
    13  
    14  Resource addressing is a common feature of Terraform that is used in
    15  multiple locations. For example, resource addressing syntax is also used for
    16  the `-target` flag for apply and plan commands.
    17  
    18  Because resource addressing is unified across Terraform, it is documented
    19  in a single place rather than duplicating it in multiple locations. You
    20  can find the [resource addressing documentation here](/docs/internals/resource-addressing.html).
