Answer C

C. Run terraform state list to find the name of the resource, then terraform state show to find the attributes including public IP address. This option allows you to easily find the public IP address of the resource you deployed, without having to destroy and recreate it. The terraform state list command lists all of the resources that have been added to the state, while the terraform state show command displays the attributes of a specific resource, including its public IP address.

C. Run terraform state list to find the name of the resource, then terraform state show to find the attributes including public IP address If you have not created any outputs in your Terraform code, you can still find the public IP address of the resource by using the terraform state commands. First, you can run terraform state list to see a list of all the resources that Terraform is managing in the state file. Look for the resource with a type that matches your webapp, such as "aws_instance" or "google_compute_instance". Once you have found the name of the resource, you can run terraform state show <resource_name> to view all of the attributes of the resource, including the public IP address. For example, if the name of the resource is "webapp", you would run terraform state show webapp. This will display all of the attributes of the resource, including the public IP address.

C. Run terraform state list to find the name of the resource, then terraform state show to find the attributes including public IP address is the best method to quickly find the IP address of the resource you deployed. terraform state list will show you the name of all the resources currently tracked in your Terraform state. You can then use terraform state show followed by the resource name to see all the details of the resource, including any attributes like the public IP address.

C. Run terraform state list to find the name of the resource, then terraform state show to find the attributes, including the public IP address. Explanation: Not Option A (terraform output ip_address) assumes that there is an output variable named ip_address in your Terraform configuration, but since you mentioned that you did not create any outputs, this option may not be applicable.

vote for option C

C is the correct answer.

Is it C or A ?

The question does not talk about any output defined so you can't expect one

C for sure

A cannot be. You don't have any output declared, so there is no default output or something like that where you could find the ip address. On the other hand, terraform state list, and then show specific, contains the state and this includes the ip address

C I choose too

C. Run terraform state list to find the name of the resource, then terraform state show to find the attributes including public IP address

C i choose

If there is no output defined for the resource, the "output" command will not show anything. Correct is C.
