The 39 Terraform state will be written into the file `path/mystate/version-1.tfstate`. The `TableStore` must have a primary key named `LockID` of type `String`. 40 41 42 ## Data Source Configuration 43 44 To make use of the OSS remote state in another configuration, use the 45 [`terraform_remote_state` data 46 source](/docs/language/state/remote-state-data.html). 47 48 ```hcl 49 terraform { 50 backend "oss" { 51 bucket = "remote-state-dns" 52 prefix = "mystate/state" 53 key = "terraform.tfstate" 54 region = "cn-beijing" 55 } 56 } 57 ``` 58 59 The `terraform_remote_state` data source will return all of the root outputs 60 defined in the referenced remote state, an example output might look like: 61 62 ``` 63 data "terraform_remote_state" "network" { 64 backend = "oss" 65 config = { 66 bucket = "remote-state-dns" 67 key = "terraform.tfstate" 68 prefix = "mystate/state" 69 region = "cn-beijing" 70 } 71 outputs = {} 72 workspace = "default" 73 } 74 ``` 75 76 ## Configuration variables 77 78 The following configuration options or environment variables are supported: 79 80 * `access_key` - (Optional) Alibaba Cloud access key. It supports environment variables `ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY` and `ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID`. 81 * `secret_key` - (Optional) Alibaba Cloud secret access key. It supports environment variables `ALICLOUD_SECRET_KEY` and `ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET`. 82 * `security_token` - (Optional) STS access token. It supports environment variable `ALICLOUD_SECURITY_TOKEN`. 83 * `ecs_role_name` - (Optional, Available in 0.12.14+) The RAM Role Name attached on a ECS instance for API operations. You can retrieve this from the 'Access Control' section of the Alibaba Cloud console. 84 * `region` - (Optional) The region of the OSS bucket. It supports environment variables `ALICLOUD_REGION` and `ALICLOUD_DEFAULT_REGION`. 85 * `endpoint` - (Optional) A custom endpoint for the OSS API. It supports environment variables `ALICLOUD_OSS_ENDPOINT` and `OSS_ENDPOINT`. 86 * `bucket` - (Required) The name of the OSS bucket. 87 * `prefix` - (Opeional) The path directory of the state file will be stored. Default to "env:". 88 * `key` - (Optional) The name of the state file. Defaults to `terraform.tfstate`. 89 * `tablestore_endpoint` / `ALICLOUD_TABLESTORE_ENDPOINT` - (Optional) A custom endpoint for the TableStore API. 90 * `tablestore_table` - (Optional) A TableStore table for state locking and consistency. The table must have a primary key named `LockID` of type `String`. 91 * `sts_endpoint` - (Optional, Available in 1.0.11+) Custom endpoint for the AliCloud Security Token Service (STS) API. It supports environment variable `ALICLOUD_STS_ENDPOINT`. 92 * `encrypt` - (Optional) Whether to enable server side 93 encryption of the state file. If it is true, OSS will use 'AES256' encryption algorithm to encrypt state file. 94 * `acl` - (Optional) [Object 95 ACL](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/52284.htm) 96 to be applied to the state file. 97 * `shared_credentials_file` - (Optional, Available in 0.12.8+) This is the path to the shared credentials file. It can also be sourced from the `ALICLOUD_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE` environment variable. If this is not set and a profile is specified, `~/.aliyun/config.json` will be used. 98 * `profile` - (Optional, Available in 0.12.8+) This is the Alibaba Cloud profile name as set in the shared credentials file. It can also be sourced from the `ALICLOUD_PROFILE` environment variable. 99 * `assume_role_role_arn` - (Optional, Available in 1.1.0+) The ARN of the role to assume. If ARN is set to an empty string, it does not perform role switching. It supports the environment variable `ALICLOUD_ASSUME_ROLE_ARN`. 100 Terraform executes configuration on account with provided credentials. 101 * `assume_role_policy` - (Optional, Available in 1.1.0+) A more restrictive policy to apply to the temporary credentials. This gives you a way to further restrict the permissions for the resulting temporary security credentials. You cannot use this policy to grant permissions that exceed those of the role that is being assumed. 102 * `assume_role_session_name` - (Optional, Available in 1.1.0+) The session name to use when assuming the role. If omitted, 'terraform' is passed to the AssumeRole call as session name. It supports environment variable `ALICLOUD_ASSUME_ROLE_SESSION_NAME`. 103 * `assume_role_session_expiration` - (Optional, Available in 1.1.0+) The time after which the established session for assuming role expires. Valid value range: [900-3600] seconds. Default to 3600 (in this case Alibaba Cloud uses its own default value). It supports environment variable `ALICLOUD_ASSUME_ROLE_SESSION_EXPIRATION`. 104 105 * `assume_role` - (**Deprecated as of 1.1.0+**, Available in 0.12.6+) If provided with a role ARN, will attempt to assume this role using the supplied credentials. It will be ignored when `assume_role_role_arn` is specified. 106 107 **Deprecated in favor of flattening assume_role_\* options** 108 109 * `role_arn` - (Required) The ARN of the role to assume. If ARN is set to an empty string, it does not perform role switching. It supports the environment variable `ALICLOUD_ASSUME_ROLE_ARN`. 110 Terraform executes configuration on account with provided credentials. 111 112 * `policy` - (Optional) A more restrictive policy to apply to the temporary credentials. This gives you a way to further restrict the permissions for the resulting temporary security credentials. You cannot use this policy to grant permissions that exceed those of the role that is being assumed. 113 114 * `session_name` - (Optional) The session name to use when assuming the role. If omitted, 'terraform' is passed to the AssumeRole call as session name. It supports environment variable `ALICLOUD_ASSUME_ROLE_SESSION_NAME`. 115 116 * `session_expiration` - (Optional) The time after which the established session for assuming role expires. Valid value range: [900-3600] seconds. Default to 3600 (in this case Alibaba Cloud uses its own default value). It supports environment variable `ALICLOUD_ASSUME_ROLE_SESSION_EXPIRATION`. 117 118 -> **Note:** If you want to store state in the custom OSS endpoint, you can specify an environment variable `OSS_ENDPOINT`, like "oss-cn-beijing-internal.aliyuncs.com"
