# Command: apply
The `terraform apply` command is used to apply the changes required
to reach the desired state of the configuration, or the pre-determined
set of actions generated by a `terraform plan` execution plan.
## Usage
Usage: `terraform apply [options] [dir]`
By default, `apply` scans the current directory for the configuration
and applies the changes appropriately. However, a path to another configuration
or an execution plan can be provided. Execution plans can be used to only
execute a pre-determined set of actions.
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
* `-no-color` - Disables output with coloring.
* `-state=path` - Path to the state file. Defaults to "terraform.tfstate".
* `-state-out=path` - Path to write updated state file. By default, the
`-state` path will be used.
* `-var 'foo=bar'` - Set a variable in the Terraform configuration. This
flag can be set multiple times.
* `-var-file=foo` - Set variables in the Terraform configuration from
a file. If "terraform.tfvars" is present, it will be automatically
loaded if this flag is not specified.
