description: Terraform can store state remotely in Swift.
---
# swift
Stores the state as an artifact in [Swift](http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/latest/).
This backend supports [state locking](/language/state/locking).
~> Warning! It is highly recommended that you enable [Object Versioning](https://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/latest/overview_object_versioning.html) by setting the [`archive_container`](/language/settings/backends/swift#archive_container) configuration. This allows for state recovery in the case of accidental deletions and human error.
## Example Configuration
```hcl
terraform {
backend "swift" {
container = "terraform-state"
archive_container = "terraform-state-archive"
}
}
```
This will create a container called `terraform-state` and an object within that container called `tfstate.tf`. It will enable versioning using the `terraform-state-archive` container to contain the older version.
For the access credentials we recommend using a
[partial configuration](/language/settings/backends/configuration#partial-configuration).
## Data Source Configuration
```hcl
data "terraform_remote_state" "foo" {
backend = "swift"
config = {
container = "terraform_state"
archive_container = "terraform_state-archive"
}
}
```
## Configuration variables
The following configuration options are supported:
* `auth_url` - (Optional) The Identity authentication URL. If omitted, the
`OS_AUTH_URL` environment variable is used.
* `cloud` - (Optional; required if `auth_url` is not specified) An entry in a
`clouds.yaml` file. See the OpenStack `os-client-config`
[documentation](https://docs.openstack.org/os-client-config/latest/user/configuration.html)
for more information about `clouds.yaml` files. If omitted, the `OS_CLOUD`
environment variable is used.
* `region_name` - (Optional) - The region in which to store `terraform.tfstate`. If
omitted, the `OS_REGION_NAME` environment variable is used.
* `container` - (Required) The name of the container to create for storing
the Terraform state file.
* `state_name` - (Optional) The name of the state file in the container.
Defaults to `tfstate.tf`.
* `path` - (Optional) DEPRECATED: Use `container` instead.
The name of the container to create in order to store the state file.
* `user_name` - (Optional) The Username to login with. If omitted, the
`OS_USERNAME` environment variable is used.
* `user_id` - (Optional) The User ID to login with. If omitted, the
`OS_USER_ID` environment variable is used.
* `application_credential_id` - (Optional) (Identity v3 only) The ID of an
application credential to authenticate with. An
`application_credential_secret` has to bet set along with this parameter.
* `application_credential_name` - (Optional) (Identity v3 only) The name of an
application credential to authenticate with. Requires `user_id`, or
`user_name` and `user_domain_name` (or `user_domain_id`) to be set.
* `application_credential_secret` - (Optional) (Identity v3 only) The secret of an
application credential to authenticate with. Required by
`application_credential_id` or `application_credential_name`.
* `tenant_id` - (Optional) The ID of the Tenant (Identity v2) or Project
(Identity v3) to login with. If omitted, the `OS_TENANT_ID` or
`OS_PROJECT_ID` environment variables are used.
* `tenant_name` - (Optional) The Name of the Tenant (Identity v2) or Project
(Identity v3) to login with. If omitted, the `OS_TENANT_NAME` or
`OS_PROJECT_NAME` environment variable are used.
* `password` - (Optional) The Password to login with. If omitted, the
`OS_PASSWORD` environment variable is used.
* `token` - (Optional; Required if not using `user_name` and `password`)
A token is an expiring, temporary means of access issued via the Keystone
service. By specifying a token, you do not have to specify a username/password
combination, since the token was already created by a username/password out of
band of Terraform. If omitted, the `OS_TOKEN` or `OS_AUTH_TOKEN` environment
variables are used.
* `user_domain_name` - (Optional) The domain name where the user is located. If
omitted, the `OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME` environment variable is checked.
* `user_domain_id` - (Optional) The domain ID where the user is located. If
omitted, the `OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID` environment variable is checked.
* `project_domain_name` - (Optional) The domain name where the project is
located. If omitted, the `OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_NAME` environment variable is
checked.
* `project_domain_id` - (Optional) The domain ID where the project is located
If omitted, the `OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID` environment variable is checked.
* `domain_id` - (Optional) The ID of the Domain to scope to (Identity v3). If
omitted, the following environment variables are checked (in this order):
`OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID`, `OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID`, `OS_DOMAIN_ID`.
* `domain_name` - (Optional) The Name of the Domain to scope to (Identity v3).
If omitted, the following environment variables are checked (in this order):
`OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME`, `OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_NAME`, `OS_DOMAIN_NAME`,
`DEFAULT_DOMAIN`.
* `default_domain` - (Optional) The ID of the Domain to scope to if no other
domain is specified (Identity v3). If omitted, the environment variable
`OS_DEFAULT_DOMAIN` is checked or a default value of "default" will be
used.
* `insecure` - (Optional) Trust self-signed SSL certificates. If omitted, the
`OS_INSECURE` environment variable is used.
* `cacert_file` - (Optional) Specify a custom CA certificate when communicating
over SSL. You can specify either a path to the file or the contents of the
certificate. If omitted, the `OS_CACERT` environment variable is used.
* `cert` - (Optional) Specify client certificate file for SSL client authentication.
If omitted the `OS_CERT` environment variable is used.
* `key` - (Optional) Specify client private key file for SSL client authentication.
If omitted the `OS_KEY` environment variable is used.
* `endpoint_type` - (Optional) Specify which type of endpoint to use from the
service catalog. It can be set using the OS_ENDPOINT_TYPE environment
variable. If not set, public endpoints is used.
* `swauth` - (Optional) Set to `true` to authenticate against Swauth, a
Swift-native authentication system. If omitted, the `OS_SWAUTH` environment
variable is used. You must also set `username` to the Swauth/Swift username
such as `username:project`. Set the `password` to the Swauth/Swift key. This feature supports v1.0 of the Swauth system.
Finally, set `auth_url` as the location of the Swift service.
* `disable_no_cache_header` - (Optional) If set to `true`, the HTTP
`Cache-Control: no-cache` header will not be added by default to all API requests.
If omitted this header is added to all API requests to force HTTP caches (if any)
to go upstream instead of serving cached responses.
* `allow_reauth` - (Optional) If set to `true`, OpenStack authorization will be
perfomed automatically, if the initial auth token get expired. This is useful,
when the token TTL is low or the overall Terraform provider execution time
expected to be greater than the initial token TTL.
* `archive_container` - (Optional) The container to create to store archived copies
of the Terraform state file. If specified, Swift [object versioning](https://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/latest/overview_object_versioning.html) is enabled on the container created at `container`.
* `archive_path` - (Optional) DEPRECATED: Use `archive_container` instead.
The path to store archived copied of `terraform.tfstate`. If specified,
Swift [object versioning](https://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/latest/overview_object_versioning.html) is enabled on the container created at `path`.
* `expire_after` - (Optional) How long should the `terraform.tfstate` created at `container`
be retained for? If specified, Swift [expiring object support](https://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/latest/overview_expiring_objects.html) is enabled on the state. Supported durations: `m` - Minutes, `h` - Hours, `d` - Days.
~> **NOTE:** Since Terraform is inherently stateful - we'd strongly recommend against auto-expiring Statefiles.
