create_state_version

Create a new state version and set it as current for a Terraform Cloud workspace, enabling migration from Terraform Community edition to HCP Terraform.

Instructions

Create a state version in a workspace.

Creates a new state version and sets it as the current state version for the given workspace. The workspace must be locked by the user creating a state version. This is most useful for migrating existing state from Terraform Community edition into a new HCP Terraform workspace.

API endpoint: POST /workspaces/:workspace_id/state-versions

Args: workspace_id: The ID of the workspace (format: "ws-xxxxxxxx") serial: The serial number of this state instance md5: An MD5 hash of the raw state version params: Additional state version parameters (optional): - state: Base64 encoded raw state file - lineage: Lineage of the state version - json_state: Base64 encoded JSON state - json_state_outputs: Base64 encoded JSON state outputs - run_id: The ID of the run to associate with the state version

Returns: The created state version data including download URLs and status information

See: docs/tools/state_versions.md for reference documentation
