How to Import Azure Resources to Terraform with Aztfexport

The Azure Terraform Export tool (aztfexport) is an open-source utility developed by Microsoft that enables users to migrate existing Azure resources into Terraform state files with a single command, bringing them under Terraform's control. This tool simplifies the process of transitioning existing resources to Terraform and promotes consistent and automated resource management across all Azure environments. Key benefits include automated importing, improved IaC, easy integration, and community support. The aztfexport workflow involves identifying the resources to be exported, deciding whether to export them into the Terraform state or generate HCL code, installing aztfexport, inspecting the generated Terraform code, and integrating the exported resources into existing Terraform projects.
