unable to get org id

[lakamsani]

Using code like this:

data "cf_org" "myorg" {
  name = "${var.org_name}"
}

output "org_id" {
  value = "${cf_org.myorg.id}"
}

terraform plan triggers an error on the cf_org.myorg.id line:

Error: output 'org_id': unknown resource 'cf_org.myorg' referenced in variable cf_org.myorg.id

What can be fixed to make this work?

A second question is related to vars that collect passwords like:

variable "password" {
  description = "IBM Cloud Password"
  type = "string"
}

When terraform plan is run, and user is typing the password it shows it in clear text. Is there a type setting that can be used to mask the password with say *****?

Try the following:

data "cf_org" "myorg" {
  name = "${var.org_name}"
}

output "org_id" {
  value = "${data.cf_org.myorg.id}"
}

For password input, you can use variable files

That works. Thanks.
