Terraform can store the state remotely, making it easier to version and work with in a team.
---
# mas
Stores the state as a given key in a given bucket on [Microsoft Azure Storage](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-introduction/).
-> **Note:** Passing credentials directly via config options will
make them included in cleartext inside the persisted state.
Use of environment variables or config file is recommended.
## Example Usage
```
terraform remote config \
-backend=mas \
-backend-config="storage_account_name=terraform123abc" \
-backend-config="container_name=terraform-state" \
-backend-config="key=prod.terraform.tfstate"
```
## Example Referencing
```hcl
# setup remote state data source
data "terraform_remote_state" "foo" {
backend = "mas"
config {
storage_account_name = "terraform123abc"
container_name = "terraform-state"
key = "prod.terraform.tfstate"
