index, such as `${aws_instance.web.0.id}`. You can also use the splat
syntax to get a list of all the attributes: `${aws_instance.web.*.id}`.
#### Attributes of a data source
The syntax is `data.TYPE.NAME.ATTRIBUTE`. For example. `${data.aws_ami.ubuntu.id}` will interpolate the `id` attribute from the `aws_ami` [data source](/docs/configuration/data-sources.html) named `ubuntu`. If the data source has a `count`

syntax to get a list of all the attributes: `${data.aws_subnet.example.*.cidr_block}`.
