Command: workspace select

The tofu workspace select command is used to choose a different workspace to use for further operations.

Usage​

Usage: tofu workspace select NAME [DIR]

This command will select another workspace. The named workspace must already exist.

The supported flags are:

  • -or-create - If the workspace that is being selected does not exist, create it. Default is false.

  • -var 'NAME=VALUE' - Sets a value for a single input variable declared in the root module of the configuration. Use this option multiple times to set more than one variable. Refer to Input Variables on the Command Line for more information.

  • -var-file=FILENAME - Sets values for potentially many input variables declared in the root module of the configuration, using definitions from a "tfvars" file. Use this option multiple times to include values from more than one file.

There are several other ways to set values for input variables in the root module, aside from the -var and -var-file options. Refer to Assigning Values to Root Module Variables for more information.
