Duplicate an existing serverless app infra(built in the console management) using terraformer

Question

Hello !I have already an AWS infrastructure built manually. Now i want to practise infrastructure as code so i used a tool called terraformer to extract the existing infra as code. But i can not use this code to create an infra in an other AWS account using terraform command. Could you help me please? when i run terraform apply i have the error : can not read state file

if you want to load existing infra use terraform import command. don't touch the state file at any case.

Answer

Hey - the [terraform state](https://www.terraform.io/language/state) file is unique to each deployment. It sounds like your new deployment is trying to reach the old state file.

I'd recommend going through the [HashiCorp AWS Terraform tutorials](https://learn.hashicorp.com/collections/terraform/aws-get-started) and learning the product, before using another tool to extract IaC from an existing account.
