D. file("id_rsa.pub") Explanation:To read the contents of a local file as a string in Terraform, you can use the file function. The correct syntax is: variable "public_key" { type = string default = file("id_rsa.pub") } This will read the contents of the "id_rsa.pub" file and assign it to the variable "public_key" as a string.

D. file("id_rsa.pub"). The file function is a built-in Terraform function that can be used to read the contents of a local file and return the contents as a string. The file function takes a single argument, which is the path to the file to read.

the correct answer is D , explain : - file reads the contents of a file at the given path and returns them as a string. - filebase64 also reads the contents of a given file, but returns the raw bytes in that file Base64-encoded. -templatefile renders using a file from disk as a template.
