Good news, everyone!

We’ve recently published a [guide to using Terraform import](https://learn.hashicorp.com/terraform/state/import?utm_source=WEBSITE&utm_medium=WEB_FORUM&utm_offer=ARTICLE_PAGE) on HashiCorp Learn.

Once users learn to create and manage infrastructure with Terraform, one of the most common requests is to import existing infrastructure. While this process includes several manual steps, the Terraform import command is an important tool for Terraform practitioners to understand and use.
