Nice ones Usman Shafiu, Bravo, but you are exposing your private credentials in this tutorials which aren’t really safe , ie your Terraform Token , your Subscription ID , you can blur your token out , then you can use terraform.tfvars to store your Subscription ID, then use .gitignore to gitignore the file so once you version control it doesn’t appear on your GitHub repository, but great work.
