realworlditComments Off on Set DEBUG for Terraform

Terraform has detailed logs that can be enabled by setting the TF_LOG  environment variable to any value. This will cause detailed logs to appear on stderr.

You can set TF_LOG to one of the log levels TRACE,  DEBUG,  INFO,  WARN  or  ERROR to change the verbosity of the logs. TRACE is the most verbose and it is the default if TF_LOG is set to something other than a log level name.

For Windows(Powershell) the command is: $env:TF_LOG="DEBUG". To check type either $env:TF_LOG or get-childitem env:
