How to Protect Terraform Infrastructure From Accidental Workspace Selection

11/10/2026

Applying a valid plan to the wrong workspace can change an unrelated environment.

Checks to make

Make workspace and account identity visible in CI output, use separate credentials and state where appropriate, require environment-specific approval, and verify the planned resource addresses before apply. Add guardrails that fail when target metadata does not match.
