# Command: state pull
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `terraform state pull` command is used to manually download and output
|
|
|
|
|
the state from [remote state](/docs/state/remote.html). This command also
|
|
|
|
|
works with local state.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage: `terraform state pull`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command will download the state from its current location and
|
|
|
|
|
output the raw format to stdout.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is useful for reading values out of state (potentially pairing this
|
|
|
|
|
command with something like [jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/)). It is
|
|
|
|
|
also useful if you need to make manual modifications to state.
