Inspecting State

OpenTofu includes some commands for reading and updating state without taking any other actions.

• The tofu state list command shows the resource addresses for every resource OpenTofu knows about in a configuration, optionally filtered by partial resource address.

• The tofu state show command displays detailed state data about one resource.

• The tofu refresh command updates state data to match the real-world condition of the managed resources. This is done automatically during plans and applies, but not when interacting with state directly.
