# `setintersection` Function
-> **Note:** This page is about Terraform 0.12 and later. For Terraform 0.11 and
earlier, see
[0.11 Configuration Language: Interpolation Syntax](../../configuration-0-11/interpolation.html).
The `setintersection` function takes multiple sets and produces a single set
containing only the elements that all of the given sets have in common.
In other words, it computes the
[intersection](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_(set_theory)) of the sets.
```hcl
setintersection(sets...)
```
## Examples
```
> setintersection(["a", "b"], ["b", "c"], ["b", "d"])
[
"b",
]
```
The given arguments are converted to sets, so the result is also a set and
the ordering of the given elements is not preserved.
