# Variables and Outputs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Terraform language includes a few kinds of blocks for requesting or
|
||
|
|
publishing named values.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [Input Variables](/docs/configuration/variables.html) serve as parameters for
|
||
|
|
a Terraform module, so users can customize behavior without editing the source.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [Output Values](/docs/configuration/outputs.html) are like return values for a
|
||
|
|
Terraform module.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [Local Values](/docs/configuration/locals.html) are a convenience feature for
|
||
|
|
assigning a short name to an expression.
