Hello @amardeepw,

I could reproduce your issue with terraform plan, it seems you need to run step 1.6 source scripts/setup.sh. That would set those variables and then you could you go to terraform folder to run the terraform commands. Note, you need to run step 1.6 every time the terminal restarts. Thank you:

1. terraform init
2. terraform plan
3. and finally terraform apply
