How will Terraform choose which version of the provider to use?

  • A. Terraform will use the latest version of the provider for the new resource and the version recorded in the lock file to manage existing resources
  • B. Terraform will use the version recorded in your lock file
  • C. Terraform will check your state file to determine the provider version to use
  • D. Terraform will use the latest version of the provider available at the time you provision your new resource

Selected Answer: B
When Terraform encounters a new resource that uses the same provider, it will consult the .terraform-lock.hcl file to determine the version of the provider to use for that resource. This ensures consistency in the versions used across resources in the configuration and helps maintain reproducibility.
