RudderStack Terraform Workflow

The rudderlabs/rudderstack Terraform provider manages a RudderStack workspace as infrastructure-as-code: sources, destinations, and connections.

When to use

The user is authoring HCL for RudderStack, running terraform plan/apply against a workspace, migrating from UI-managed to Terraform-managed resources, importing existing resources, or organizing multi-env setups.

Preflight

• Terraform ≥ 1.0 installed
• Access token available as env var RUDDERSTACK_ACCESS_TOKEN (preferred) or in the provider block
• Optional: override API base URL with RUDDERSTACK_API_URL (default: https://api.rudderstack.com)
• Confirm with the user whether the target workspace is dev/staging/prod before any terraform apply
