Run terraform init to pull down the provider plugin from the Terraform provider registry and initialize a working Terraform directory.

This command should only be run after writing a new Terraform configuration or cloning an existing configuration from version control.

Run terraform validate to validate your Terraform configuration.

Run terraform plan to display the execution plan that Terraform will use to create resources and make modifications to infrastructure.

For this example, a plan for 3 new resources is created:

Connection: # airbyte_connection.googlesheets_teradata will be created

Destination: # airbyte_destination_teradata will be created

Source: # airbyte_source_google_sheets.my_source_gsheets will be created

View Terraform execution plan with terraform plan command

Run terraform apply, then enter yes to create a plan and carry out the plan.

Apply the Terraform plan with terraform apply command

We now have a source, destination, and connection on Airbyte Cloud created and managed via Terraform.
