Command: show
The opentf show command is used to provide human-readable output
from a state or plan file. This can be used to inspect a plan to ensure
that the planned operations are expected, or to inspect the current state
as OpenTF sees it.
Machine-readable output is generated by adding the -json command-line
flag.
When using the -json command-line flag, any sensitive values in
OpenTF state will be displayed in plain text. For more information, see
Sensitive Data in State.
JSON Output
For OpenTF state files (including when no path is provided),
opentf show -json will show a JSON representation of the state.
For OpenTF plan files, opentf show -json will show a JSON representation
of the plan, configuration, and current state.
If you've updated providers which contain new schema versions since the state
was written, the state needs to be upgraded before it can be displayed with
show -json. If you are viewing a plan, it must be created without
-refresh=false. If you are viewing a state file, run opentf refresh
first.
The output format is covered in detail in JSON Output Format.
Usage

snapshot.
