# Command: push

!> **Important:** The `terraform push` command is no longer functional. Its functionality was replaced and surpassed by [the `remote` backend](/language/settings/backends/remote), which works with current versions of Terraform Cloud. The `remote` backend allows you to run remote operations directly from the command line, and displays real-time output from the remote run environment.

The `terraform push` command was an early implementation of remote Terraform runs. It allowed teams to push a configuration to a remote run environment in a discontinued version of Terraform Enterprise.

The legacy Terraform Enterprise version that supported `terraform push` is no longer available, and there are no remaining instances of that version in operation. Without a service to push to, the command is now completely non-functional.

website: Deprecation notes about "terraform push" Also: - In the getting started guide, the TFE content was all tailored to the older run-locally workflow. I've replaced it with some brief explanation and a link to the dedicated TFE getting started guide. - Fixed a sidebar link glitch in the configuration section. (Both "Terraform" and "Terraform Enterprise" were marked as active if you were on the TFE page.) - Renamed the "Terraform Enterprise" page "Terraform Push." (Some people have gotten confused and landed on this page when trying to set up the `atlas` remote backend.) 2018-02-27 23:48:04 +01:00
