You have deployed a new webapp with a public IP address on a cloud provider. However, you did not create any outputs for your code. What is the best method to quickly find the IP address of the resource you deployed?
A.
In a new folder, use the terraform_remote_state data source to load in the state file, then write an output for each resource that you find the state file
B.
Run terraform state list to find the name of the resource, then terraform state show to find the attributes including public IP address
C.
Run terraform output ip_address to view the result
D.
Run terraform destroy then terraform apply and look for the IP address in stdout
This is a quick way to inspect the state file and find the information you need without modifying anything5. The other options are either incorrect or inefficient.
