HashiCorp Certified: Terraform Associate — Question 295

A Terraform output that sets the "sensitive" argument to true will not store that value in the state file.

Answer options

• A. True
• B. False

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because setting the 'sensitive' argument to true in a Terraform output does not prevent the value from being stored in the state file; it merely prevents the value from being displayed in command outputs. Option A is incorrect as the value is still recorded in the state for use in the configuration.
