New File

Create a variables.tf file which declares the variables edgerc_path and config_section, both of type string. Configure these with descriptions and default values.

Update

Update your provider.tf file to use these variables in the provider "akamai" block.

Init

Run terraform init and confirm the provider is installed correctly.

Plan

Run terraform plan, providing new values for the 2 variables using the -var syntax. You could run terraform apply too, but because we are not modifying any resources no changes will be applied anyway.

New File

Create a terraform.tfvars file and use it to set new values for both variables.

Plan

Re-run terraform plan using this file instead. You could run terraform apply too, but because we are not modifying any resources no changes will be applied anyway.
